Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Blog-Thread: Creating a Shell Wrapper and Runtime Modifier (SWARM) Post 303046344 by sea on Friday 1st of May 2020 11:27:25 AM
Old 05-01-2020
Allthough I've spent like 4 hours this morning trying to get my USB (or at least the iso of it) reckognized by FreeBSD via a VM, I didnt manage it..
Another 4 hours later, around 4:30pm, I stumpled about an old and forgotten man console_codes(4) while rewriting/adjusting the old TUI manpages to/for SWARM.

I wonder if I can figure how to get COLUMNS and LINES out of that - as the tput guy did.
What do you think, could I actualy save time by using console codes over tput?
Would they read 'from memory' instead of calling a physical file?

Basicly I just wanted to get rid of a dot - now I wonder if I should add some more variables... Smilie

At least I'm in the 'Lets write some manpages mood' now Smilie

EDIT
And to add a 'current time' joke:
Figured there is a pandemic going around, so I thought it is a good time for doc-days Smilie

Oh riiiiiiight... just so you know...
We're talking about ~50'ish manpages in total...

Inline::Wrapper::Module(3)				User Contributed Perl Documentation				Inline::Wrapper::Module(3)

NAME
Inline::Wrapper::Module - Internal object wrapper for individual Inline modules. SYNOPSIS
use Inline::Wrapper::Module; DESCRIPTION
Inline::Wrapper::Module is used internally by Inline::Wrapper, and should not be used directly. It will croak if you attempt to do so. It is a descendent class of Inline::Wrapper. METHODS
new() Takes the same arguments as "new()" in Inline::Wrapper, but also requires a module_name and lang_ext argument. Don't use this. It will croak if you try to use it directly. initialize() Initialize the object instance. DESTROY() Destructor to clean up the object instance, and wipe the private code module namespace created when binding the symbol list. INHERITANCE
As Inline::Wrapper::Module is an inherited class from Inline::Wrapper, all methods that apply to the base class also apply to objects of this class. However, note that this has the following effects, due to the semantics of the load()/run() steps: auto_reload settings vs. when method effects take place: auto_reload value: | FALSE TRUE --------------------+------------------------------------------ set_base_dir() | no effect after next reload / run() set_language() | no effect after next reload / run() add_language() | no effect after next reload / run() Please read through "load()" in Inline::Wrapper and "run()" in Inline::Wrapper for insight into why the implementation works like this. SEE ALSO
Inline::Wrapper The Inline documentation. The Inline-FAQ list. The examples/ directory of this module's distribution. AUTHOR
Please kindly read through this documentation and the examples/ thoroughly, before emailing me with questions. Your answer is likely in here. Also make sure that your issue is actually with the Inline::Wrapper modules, and not with Inline itself. Jason McManus (INFIDEL) -- "infidel AT cpan.org" LICENSE
Copyright (c) Jason McManus This module may be used, modified, and distributed under the same terms as Perl itself. Please see the license that came with your Perl distribution for details. perl v5.16.2 2010-03-10 Inline::Wrapper::Module(3)
