README

This repository contains some small, useful programs and scripts (typically one
file) which scratch an itch for me; they're here in the hopes that they'll
scratch an itch for you too. Currently you will find:

spewcmd:  Launch a command in the background with all output redirected to a file
          in /tmp, intended for launching GUI programs that like to spam your
          terminal; written in POSIX sh

dirindex: Write an index of directories under some path, relative to its end, to
          stdout; almost a POSIX sh one-liner.

dr:       Roll an arbitrary number of dice of an arbitrary size, using xdy
          notation (2d6, for instance). Written in C99 with two OpenBSD functions
          (strtonum(3) and, more importantly, arc4random_uniform(3), both of
          which are in libbsd as of version 0.2.0).

defold:   Meant to be the inverse of fold(1), but doesn't really work as yet;
          written in (rather embarrasing) POSIX sh.

phrase:   A random passphrase generator using dr, itself written in POSIX sh.

pkg_pigs: Rough equivalent to dpigs[0] for the OpenBSD package system, written
          in POSIX sh (calling out to pkg_info(1) for package data and dc(1) for
          math).
