binfmt.d - Configure additional binary formats for executables at boot
SYNOPSIS
/etc/binfmt.d/*.conf
/run/binfmt.d/*.conf
/usr/lib/binfmt.d/*.conf
DESCRIPTION
At boot, systemd-binfmt.service(8) reads configuration files from the above directories to register in the kernel additional binary formats
for executables.
CONFIGURATION FORMAT
Each file contains a list of binfmt_misc kernel binary format rules. Consult binfmt_misc.txt[1] for more information on registration of
additional binary formats and how to write rules.
Empty lines and lines beginning with ; and # are ignored. Note that this means you may not use ; and # as delimiter in binary format rules.
Each configuration file shall be named in the style of program.conf. Files in /etc/ override files with the same name in /usr/lib/ and
/run/. Files in /run/ override files with the same name in /usr/lib/. Packages should install their configuration files in /usr/lib/, files
in /etc/ are reserved for the local administrator, who may use this logic to override the configuration files installed from vendor
packages. All files are sorted by their filename in lexicographic order, regardless of which of the directories they reside in. If multiple
files specify the same binary type name, the entry in the file with the lexicographically latest name will be applied.
If the administrator wants to disable a configuration file supplied by the vendor, the recommended way is to place a symlink to /dev/null
in /etc/binfmt.d/ bearing the same filename.
EXAMPLE
Example 1. /etc/binfmt.d/wine.conf example:
# Start WINE on Windows executables

I'm writing a command shell, and I want to be able to detect when the user presses an arrow key (otherwise it just prints [[A, [[B, etc.). I know it's relatively easy (although somewhat more time-consuming) to detect keystrokes in noncanonical mode, but I've noticed that the bash shell detects... (4 Replies)
