Command line HTTP apps.
I just rediscovered a question I wrote on Stack Exchange. I can’t remember much about the context, but the idea is to have an ordinary “web server” application accessed through http, but simply sending plain-text backwards and forwards to a command-line based client. command line – Is there a “terminal” style program that talks to…

CLOjure SHell
I’ve been playing with CloSH, the Clojure Shell. And I have to say, I’m sold. If you’d like to have the full power of Clojure. And to write shell scripts that look like this : [cc lang=”clojure”] (doseq [f (expand “*jpg”) (println f) (sh identify -format “%wx%h” (str f)) (println)) [/cc] rather than in hard…

Scsh
Possibly The Scheme Shell will be my third Lisp (after Clojure and Racket). I need to do some more shell-scripting. And a Scheme for shell scripting sounds perfect.

Mind Traffic Control is Dead!

But as an honorary Brazilian, my new year doesn’t really start until after carnival, so now would be the time for it. However here’s a quick update.

Blame the Tools for Thought
Giles Bowkett : This is, in my opinion, the strongest argument for seeing Unix and basic coding skills as fundamental required literacy today. As prostheses for memory and identity, computers are too useful not to use, but if you don’t know how to craft your own code which gives you a UX which matches the…

Command 'n' Cursor
I’ve been travelling with my trusty (but ageing) eeepc netbook this last week. There’s much to love about it but it’s starting to feel slow in comparison with my other machine. Increasingly when I use the netbook I try to get away with doing things in a ctrl-alt-f1 shell without logging in to the GUI…

Linux Commands For The Web
Can’t remember if I saw this before, or if I posted it, but it’s beautiful. One of my favorite business model suggestions for entrepreneurs is, find an old UNIX command that hasn’t yet been implemented on the web, and fix that. talk and finger became ICQ, LISTSERV became Yahoo! Groups, ls became (the original) Yahoo!,…
