Just a shoutout and a big „Thank You“ to all these developers who provide a „dryrun“ option in their command line utilities. One of the best things I learned as a developer that might save someone‘s ass someday. 👍🏼🤗

Anyone on Android 15+ managed to ssh into a local Linux box from the native terminal app now in Android?

Once again, this is using the phone to ssh into a computer. Not the other way round.

I could easily ssh into my account on tty.sdf.org, but it just hangs forever when I try accessing my laptop. Got sshd running, but I've likely set something up wrong.

✅ 📱→ 💻
❌ 💻 → 📱

Update: reinstalled openssh-client, it works now

fzf is a general-purpose command-line fuzzy finder.

It’s an interactive filter program for any kind of list; files, command history, processes, hostnames, bookmarks, git commits, etc. With its novel “fuzzy” matching algorithm, you can quickly type in patterns with omitted characters and still get the results you want.

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 ;_;

Maybe one positive outcome of this AI bubble:


The one good thing that could come of this latest #AI craze is that finally people are getting used to the idea that their computer can do more for them than just follow simple point-and-click or touch-and-swipe commands. The computer can actually do more intelligent things for you.

The thing is, computers have always been able to do “intelligent” things for you, since the first mainstream commercial GUIs of the 1980s. You have always had the ability to just open up a command line and enter commands, or open up a BASIC interpreter and enter a program, and have its commands affect the GUI environment in which you are working. You can still do that nowadays with the POSIX shell (e.g. #Bash or #Zsh), and with tools that facilitate the use of command lines like #Emacs and #Vim . People think #LLMs can do that for them now, but if you learn the computer language yourself, you can control the computer yourself without needing to trust an AI to get it right for you, which it often does not.

So really, us app developers need to rebrand the idea of a command line as a “chat log,” rebrand scripting as “AI.” Thanks to AI, now maybe ordinary tech consumers may finally see the virtue of having interactive notebooks, and demanding notebook features in more of their apps. People don’t want to learn shell scripting, but if you package shell scripting as “AI,” you can get ordinary consumers to demand it of you.

⁂ Article

The Bard and The Shell

A lot of introductions to using a shell — whether it’s Linux, one of the BSDs, the Mac (or even Windows using WSL!) — show examples that are a bit on the light side (looking at you, cowsay ?

) or dump cryptical command sequences on the unwary newbie that make an inscription in hieroglyphs on an Egyptian temple column look easy. Both approaches make sense. The first one tries not to scare people when they use the command line, while the second one shows how powerful it is compared to […]
