Looking back


Display stations on the Yokohama Line

Shell art that is especially fond of. I wanted to try it because I can now do -i 0 with nl in coreutils.

BSD


$ nl -w 1 -v 0 -i 0 -b p'[Kawayama Kikushin Kamoda Aibashi Hachikata]' yokohamaline | nl -w 1 -i 0 | tr '01' 'Pleasant each' | expand
Each Kai Higashi Kanagawa

Each pleasant Kikuna
Each Kai Shin-Yokohama

Each Tokaichiba
Each pleasant Nagatsuta

Each pleasant Machida
Each Kobuchi
Each Fuchinobe
Each Yabe
Each pleasant Sagamihara

Defect report

-- -d bug in coreutils nl --Insufficient documentation for inf tokens in coreutils seq and sleep --POSIX incompatible with -s option on NetBSD (macOS) nl

I was reporting in real time the bugs I found during the verification while writing the article. For those whose revision policy was fixed during the serialization, past articles have also been revised and added.


Articles I couldn't write this time

--Why is coreutils cat -n so fast? --FreeBSD nl --BusyBox build options --Combine with pr --History of POSIX formulation

This time, I couldn't write an article because of lack of research. I may write it soon.


Impressions

――As a result, the software quality has improved, so I'm glad I did it. ――The more you look up, the more you don't understand -** nl command I don't understand at all **
