I have been using Unix for 25+ years and I just learned about the status character in shells (often ^T). Huh.

@prologic@twtxt.net to answer some of your previous questions, i’m using txtnish for my timeline and user controls, and plain twtxt for posting. the alternative to that would be setting up a bunch of shell aliases or small scripts. or making my own client in Go. There’s a thought… ;)
@prologic@twtxt.net (#https://twtxt.net/search?tag=tsvhqdq OK. Im upgrading my tools. twtxt works pretty well inside an Emacs shell window…

@mdosch@mdosch.de Apple refuses to ship GPLv3 software. bash has security bugs that Apple doesn’t want to backport. So they’ve switched default shells again, this time to zsh. (bash and the previous default, tcsh, still ship with the OS.)
@adiabetic@www.frogorbits.com What is Catalina? A new shell?
Just installed Catalina (my recommendation: don’t.). zsh is a fine shell…for downloading and installing other shells.

Made a shell alias (fish function, actually) for twtxt tweet. It’s just tt now
Finally wrote a small shell script to make posting easier though. Now I can push from pretty much anywhere that has my SSH key.
Interestingly enough, Visual Studio Code keeps running bash as its preferred shell, even though it isn’t the login shell anymore.
@kas@enotty.dk now that I understand fish enough to port over the contents of my .bashrc and .bash_profile, I’m starting to get used to it. How’s having different shell preferences for login/interactive treating you?
today was the day of the triennual trying of the fish shell only to go back to bash within an hour or two

Almost all the content I post to social media is posted by a small shell script that simultaneously posts to several services or through IFTTT duplicating those posts to services for which I lack an API key. When facebook broke automated posting, it meant my account went dark. I didn’t notice.

Bad idea of the day: Scroll back through GUI input events & application states like you scroll back through shell history; inject conditionals and loops; use speculative execution of applications to show projected state from these changes.
The cyberpunk aesthetic, moreso than mere future noir, is the future as seen through the eyes of Sir Clive Sinclair: sleek but broken, and dominated by posturing. It’s a beveled black hermetically-sealed shell cracked open to fix manufacturing & design flaws, alligator-clipped wire spilling out, but no fix will prevent it from frying your brain if you look at it funny.
the political spectrum is a horseshoe crab: ancient, ugly, full of blue blood that contains poorly-understood enzymes that might cure some kinds of cancer, and frequently leaving its molted shells along the north atlantic shoreline of north america
@kas@enotty.dk Switching shells is the reason that I started deploying scripts in /usr/local/bin rather than defining aliases. :D Tested #bash #ksh #fish and #zsh and the latter it is now for years already.

Shell Scripts Matter https://dev.to/thiht/shell-scripts-matter
One thing i really miss in posix shell is local. It’s so easy to pollute your namespace. Current solution is to use more pipes and subshells.
the egg grows within its mother until there’s nothing left but skin and feathers stretched taut over the shell, then hatches from the bird
I imagine that the shell rotates slowly as it grows, so the older a part of the city, the more distinctly lopsided houses and streets are
a snail so old and large that a city has grown into the shell, houses cling to it, countless pulleys handle traffic, a castle sits on top
one sunbird rides the plasma winds to Earth, enters an orbit, replaces the sun that is now a slowly cooling shell receding in the distance
