How about this, which is much simpler: gdb --pid=$(cat /var/run/sshd.pid)

Speak for yourself, sometimes it is.

Well I'll keep an eye out, and if I see your changes I'll try to fold them in - unless they look too you-specific :)

I just hope he comes back to the Lady Teldra plot sometime soon. The last few books have left me hanging for almost as long as I can bear.

Patches welcome! More seriously if you could explain how you'd like to see it done I'd be happy to try adding it.

I think you have a lot of choices, so it comes down to personal preferences. Basically this tool will only work against a local set of Maildirs, so your job is to get the mail from the remote host ont…

Since you're going with "classics" I'd add: * Les Liaisons dangereuses * The Count of Monte Cristo Plus my personal picks; Taltos the assassin, Chronicles of Amber, Dune & LoTR.

I have a simple online application which allows me to enter my recurring expenses and salary payments. That allows me to compare my bank balance on any given day to the "expected" total. http://stati…

I'm working on a modal, console-based, email-client. It's developed in C++ and has fully integrated scripting provided via lua. http://lumail.org/ https://github.com/skx/lumail/ It is pretty diff…

I'm a random developer/sysadmin so when I see something that is interesting I offer as much as seems reasonable to me. Then I receive responses saying, "Sorry I was looking for £10,000". It really doe…

I've not looked for such a thing, but as you suggest a wrapper rather than yet-another generator is probably the way to go. Perhaps even a CMS-like thing that could be done online entirely?

Hard to draw ASCII here, but imagine a symlink from "/js/jquery.js" pointing to "/js/jquery-1.2.3.js". A good application will write output that has a literal copy of the numbered version, and a symli…

Indeed. As explained on the page I was using Debian's stable release. The new release, Wheezy, contains a package for hakyll. I will retest in the future, once I've upgraded my host(s).

My bias is towards my own tool; the rest were picked at random, based on recommendations and my free time. No explicit bias intended :)

I knew I'd heard of that name. THere are a couple of projects listed in the README that I've not yet gotten round to. A user submitted a bug-report to draw attention to Middleman & Yeoman, but th…

I've updated my mini-review of static-site generators to include it: https://github.com/skx/static-site-generators Early testing looks good, but like so many existing tools it mishandles symbolic li…

Interesting project, thanks for sharing a link. I use 'bluetile' which also allows you to set "floating" vs. "tiled" on a per-workspace basis. I'm probably going to migrate to pure-tiled in the fut…

I've never used Fastmail, but didn't they lose a lot of customers with a hastily designed "user interface" upgrade that dropped lots of features recently?

The only CLI for mail that I'm aware of is this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MH_Message_Handling_System Otherwise mutt is probably the best console mail client out there.…

Both sup and notmuch are clients that I've tried to use in the past. Sadly neither would import my mail archive without crashing. Which is unfortunate because they look like they'd be pretty nice. Bu…

Pretty much agree, with the massive exception that I used to work with a bloke who pronounced "HTML" (which I spell out) as "h-timmell". That drove me mad.

Using a bicycle? When I was a lad we had to carry them by hand, up-hill, down-hill, come rain or shine. I'd have loved to have had a bicycle on my round(s). (Sunday mornings were the killer day, her…

I tend to do that when I'm using run-parts, or similar processing over a directory of files that will all be read. It ensures that files are always loaded in a predictable order. Usually it doesn't m…

My actual~/.bash_profile file is very minimal, it just sources each file in ~/.bash/ in turn. You can see the organized contents of that directory here: https://github.com/skx/dotfiles/tree/master/.b…

Familiarity, and the fact that it isn't packaged for all distributions. (For example Debian have no packages.) Sure it is probably "better", but running Debian's stable release the only updates I wis…

The problem is that high-end clients would want somebody with stability, resources, and above all HISTORY. There are too many people who setup hosting companies because it is comparatively cheap to ge…
