DESCRIPTION
pcscd is the daemon program for pcsc-lite. It is a resource manager that coordinates communications with smart card readers and smart cards
and cryptographic tokens that are connected to the system.
It allows applications to access smart cards and readers using the winscard API but without knowing details of the card or reader.
pcscd coordinates the loading of drivers for card readers.
SERIAL SMART CARD READER DRIVERS
Smart card reader drivers are placed in the /usr/lib/pcsc/drivers directory. Each driver is simply an .so file. pcscd locates the driver
using the /etc/reader.conf.d/reader.conf file. See the reader.conf(5) manual page for more information. Drivers are available at
http://www.musclecard.com/drivers.html.
USB SMART CARD READER DRIVERS
USB smart card reader drivers are located in /usr/lib/pcsc/drivers directory as a bundle. You shall not add a USB driver in
/etc/reader.conf.d/reader.conf file.
FILES
/etc/reader.conf.d/reader.conf : Reader configuration file
/var/run/pcscd/pcscd.pid : process id of the running pcscd
/usr/lib/pcsc/drivers : directory containing bundles for USB drivers

What is the point of this? Whenever I close my shell it appends to the history file without adding this. I have never seen it overwrite my history file.

Hi all...
Well guys and gals, I jumped in at the deep end and found things that PERL cannot do by default.
Many tricky terminal escape codes are not catered for so I had to create workarounds.
One thing I searched for was this:

Well, guys I saw a question about GOTO for Python.
So this gave me the inspiration to attempt a GOTO function for 'dash', (bash and ksh too).

This is purely a fun project to see if it is possible in PURE... (3 Replies)
