Edit and compare giant binary files with lfhex

Tue, 27 May 2008 08:00:00 GMT

This module provides a configuration editors (and models) for the configuration files of OpenSsh. ("/etc/ssh/sshd_config", /etc/ssh/ssh_config and "~/.ssh/config"). This module can also be used to modify safely the content of these configuration files from a Perl programs. Once this module is installed, you can edit "/etc/ssh/sshd_config" with run (as root) : # cme edit sshd To edit /etc/ssh/ssh_config, run (as root): # cme edit ssh To edit ~/.ssh/config, run as a normal user: # cme edit ssh user interfaces As mentioned in cme, several user interfaces are available with "edit" subcommand: o A graphical interface is proposed by default if Config::Model::TkUI is installed. o A Curses interface with option "cme edit ssh -ui curses" if Config::Model::CursesUI is installed. o A Shell like interface with option "cme edit ssh -ui shell".
