bash, zsh, and ksh93 support `exec -a` especially for this case.



Hi, adding WS2812B LED strips of arbitrary length would be awesome! Scrolling the canvas is sometimes problematic. Otherwise very interesting.


Thanks! That’s a great suggestion, supporting WS2812B strips with arbitrary length is definitely something I’d like to add. I also have in mind adding many more LED based components. I’ll take a look at improving the canvas scrolling too

hrx looks much better, as txtar can't include, e.g., other txtar files


The main problem with them is they are not working yet and there are not enough people working on improving that.


The link shows a list of firmwares. The actual sources are at https://github.com/Freetz-NG/freetz-ng - but it's not the original FritzBox firmware sources:

> Freetz is a toolbox for developers and experienced users to build a modified firmware based on the original firmware for the DSL/LAN/WLAN/VoIP-Routers AVM Fritz!Box and T-Com Speedport (identical hardware) and to transfer this firmware to the device. There are many extension packages available, along with options to remove unwanted functionality from the original firmware.

No, it won't: https://godbolt.org/z/xbzz4cEq3


> yes, ZFS can be configured to use a WAL too for durability

ZFS always uses ZIL for sync writes. You can optionally set `sync=disabled` for a dataset to switch it off. I would not describe it as "can be configured to use WAL".


Only with GNU su. A portable though limited replacement would be something like

    alias sudo="su root -c"
