How to play ASCII-Art Star Wars offline

Following will teach you how to play the "easter-egg" (which actually isn't, but many people describe this as an easter egg) of ASCII-Art Star Wars (or Star Wars in terminal/telnet, whatever), the one you normally starts like this:

$ telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl
  1. Before you start, ensure Node.js is installed.
  2. Navigate to www.asciimation.co.nz, the original home of that ASCII-Art Star Wars.
  3. Press F12 to open developer tools.

Flamegraph of your asciidoc books

I wrote a very primitive script to produce a flamegraph out of a number of asciidoc files. See this blog post for some idea of the result.

WARNING: It's heavily taylored to my own setup, so not sure it'll work directly with yours, or you might have some customization to do. (If there's enough interest I could do a more general script / Dockerfile.)

Note: I have moved this list to a proper repository. I'll leave this gist up, but it won't be updated. To submit an idea, open a PR on the repo.

Note that I have not tried all of these personally, and cannot and do not vouch for all of the tools listed here. In most cases, the descriptions here are copied directly from their code repos. Some may have been abandoned. Investigate before installing/using.

The ones I use regularly include: bat, dust, fd, fend, hyperfine, miniserve, ripgrep, just, cargo-audit and cargo-wipe.
