pfr He posted how to use wmutils on his blog, You are the WM and reddit People using WMUtils, how do you use it?. Also, check out the script he uses on his Git repository: https://git.z3bra.org/scripts/files.html. It's a great script. For the Plan9 cursor, I got it from https://π.duncano.de/.

Just now I decided to see why it's called links-gui

JuvenalUrbino

kc9udx Amiga inspired XFCE?

kc9udx

JuvenalUrbino it's KDE. But I often find myself pressing LAmiga-M to change workspaces. 🫤

Fortunately I always remember to cat file in stead of copy file *

How odd. It's copy file CON on MS-DOS to cat a file.

kc9udx

rvp yes but in Tripos and it's nephew AmigaDOS, * is the console, input and output. #? is the equivalent of Unix *

Incidentally, my memory is acting its age, but isn't the MS-DOS equivalent of cat file type file?

rvp

Only if you don't wish to look l33t. And, to truly baffle the proles:

C:\> copy file.txt \any\existing\dir\CON.txt

or, even,

C:\> type file.txt > c:\some\path\CON.exe

kc9udx

rvp or name a file that way (or AUX) if you want to confuse people AND crash Windows 🤣

rvp

kc9udx Oh, did happen? I'd always thought you couldn't ever create suchly-named files using the system itself (don't mean using a disk editor to hand-craft entries; nor using another OS--like Unix).

kc9udx

rvp you can't as far as I know. But who runs MS-DOS and doesn't use the Norton Utilities?

I yoosta have files on a server named AUX, .. and . just to trip up anyone using the wrong operating system. AUX actually crashed Windows and .. made it really confused.

rvp

kc9udx But who runs MS-DOS and doesn't use the Norton Utilities?

Yah. Midnight Commander is 2nd bit of GNU software I always install everywhere (the 1st is bash).

And you seemed such a nice guy on first acquaintance... 😆

oui

[cwm] My quiet space

A little update. Dots available here

rvp

oui Igloo deco still lookin fine, I see ...

oui

rvp Still waiting for yours though 🥹

rvp

oui Them Puss in Boots eyes got me. Almost.

Turn's out I've already got 2 screenshots on this board (quelle surprise).

Here's the boring one (do xsetroot -fg black -bg rgb:20/20/20 -mod 5 5 to see the background on all my Unixes), and, here is the flashier one.

oui

rvp
How could I possibly have missed that!!???

NOW THAT, is the most beautiful fetch output on a white on black terminal my eyes have ever beheld. 🧙‍♂️

(let's pretend we didn't see those fizzypop colored prompts)

rvp

oui (let's pretend we didn't see those fizzypop colored prompts)

🥹

oui [...] on a white on black terminal [...]

rgb:0a/0a/0a, actually; not Black

Anyway, now it is:

! XTerm*background:      rgb:0a/0a/0a
XTerm*background:       rgb:1a/1a/1a
! XTerm*foreground:      SpringGreen
XTerm*foreground:       DarkSalmon

It's my approximation of an "Amber" phosphor. The "Green" one wasn't as soothing over the long term.

(Yes, Mr. DeMille, I'm ready for r/unixgore now)
