I only just learned you can use the mouse in the TTY! (The Linux text-only console you get to by pressing Ctrl+Alt+F1, F2, etc.)

Some applications that enable this are gpm and consolation.

consolation worked better for me, especially when in tmux; however, I still can't get scrolling with middle button and trackpoint to work, which is what would be the most useful for me. I don't know if it has to do with consolation, tmux mouse bindings, my particular ThinkPad model, etc. I can't find anything online about this, so if you've also dabbled in this, please share your experience!

A really cool thing I just learned: since version 3.4, Pandoc lets you output markup with ANSI escape codes so you can see formatted text in the terminal!

However, the default formatting (e. g. inline code as red on light grey) kind of makes my eyes bleed?

Here's the commit. Any Pandoc mavens know how to customize the colours? Like do I edit a copy of ANSI.hs and put it…somewhere? Do I make a custom Lua filter? Halp ;_;

Mastui – A Retro-Modern Mastodon Client for the Terminal

Tired of clunky Mastodon clients that don’t fit your workflow? I built Mastui, a retro-modern Mastodon client for the terminal. Think multi-timeline views, themes, and even image rendering — all inside your terminal window. It started as a pet project, but it’s

i have to switch one of my scripts to use getopts instead of just a case statement pray for me ;_;

Alors ça je vais voir comment ça marche, parce que la copie de gros fichiers sans barre de progression, c'est vraiment déplaisant. https://github.com/jarun/advcpmv #linux #commandline #hack #ergonomie

Tachyonfx brings web-level animations to the command line..
Then Ratzilla puts it back in browsers where it belongs 🤷‍♂️

tfw you find a cool-looking tty colour scheme only to realize the creator didn't make the bright/bold variants different so it functionally only has 8 colours rather than 16 :|

Dear sound/audio folks and engineers,

I have a directory with 3.5GiB of audio files (chiefly opus & m4a) which are spoken word recordings.

Some of them are quite low, and some of them are quite dynamic such that it's a whisper at times and nearly a shout at other times.

I've processed a lot of them with #audacity's compressor filter or #ffmpeg (ffmpeg -i audio.m4a -filter:a "speechnorm=e=50:r=0.0001:l=1" audio-normalized.m4a), but there are some unprocessed files in the collection, which are a pain to individually find and fix.

Is there a way from the #CommandLine to detect the loudness and/or dynamic range of audio files so that I can automatically flag them for processing with ffmpeg?

Thanks!!
