Show HN: Interactive Bash Utilities

4 pointsby ertugalmost 14 years ago
Hello HN,<p>After some quick hacking, I have managed to extract some of the things in my .bashrc I find useful to make a library.<p>Maybe the most interesting part is prompt.sh. It displays the return code of the last command along with an error message. The error message comes from a look-up table using the last command run and the return code.<p>Please let me know what you want to see in such an utility library.<p>https://github.com/ertug/bash-utils

You can turn all that elifs on prompt.sh into a case/esac.<p>I've returned to screen from tmux, since it manages vertical split. I've something similar for auto-screen. But my configuration avoids nested screen sessions (i.e. ssh to host A, and then from host A to host B, both with the same .bashrc configs), like this:<p>[[ -x $( type -P screen ) ]] &#38;&#38; \ [[ -n "$SSH_CONNECTION" ]] &#38;&#38; \ [[ "x$TERM" != 'xscreen' ]] &#38;&#38; screen -dR

Interesting, I don't have time to dig into it right now, but I'm always interested in cool dotfile stuff.
