This script provides a method for creating generic (cross-distro), installable, binary packages. The created packages include a log that makes uninstall easy.

Createpkg

Intro

This script provides a simple method for tracking software that you have built from source, or binaries that you want to repackage from another distribution. It also simplifies transferring the software to other machines for install or backup. It works as a nice secondary package management tool, without the need to work with complex, distro specific, build tools.

Extracts an Opera Debian package and installs it into /usr/local. An uninstall script is also created and installed as well. Upgrades work if you used this script to install a previous version. Completely unofficial and unsupported by Opera Software.

Disclaimer: I wrote this script for my own personal usage. It is not officially supported by Opera Software.

Whilst Opera currently only provide .deb packages, it is possible to install Opera on different distros. This install script automates the process.

If you don't already have the script, fetch it like so:

git clone https://gist.github.com/ace4fb780216aa28d922.git

To install the latest stable release, issue:

Recursively Change Line Endings (Windows)
REM On Unix you would do this: find ./ -type f -exec dos2unix {} \;
REM After installing dos2unix.exe in Windows, you can create a small bat script with the below in it to
REM recursively change the line endings. Careful if you have any hidden directories (e.g. .git)
for /f "tokens=* delims=" %%a in ('dir "C:\Users\username\path\to\directory" /s /b') do (
"C:\Program Files\unix2dos.exe" %%a
)
#!/bin/bash
# Author: Napoleon Martin
# fileinpector.sh
# Desciption: The script searches a directory for files, looks up their filetype in the
# filetable.txt and rename the files using the correct extension using
# pattern matching. It must be able to work more than once without appending
# pattern duplicate extensions eg. file.txt.txt is not acceptable.
# Makes sure that fileinspector.sh can handle a single file or directory.

A short guide to quickly setting up a small Slackware install

Setting up a "small" Slackware install

Intro

Before you do this, reconsider if it is really needed. More often than not, it isn't. This is why.

A common reason for attempting a minimal install is an expectation that Slackware will run faster. This is not true. Some example, (IMHO) valid, reasons for stripping back the install include:

  • Installing on a device with limited disk space, where it is hard to add additional storage
  • A setup where there is an ongoing cost to rent disk space (e.g. a Virtual Private Server)

JSX Spread Attributes

If you know all the properties that you want to place on a component a head of time, it is easy to use JSX:

  var component = <Component foo={x} bar={y} />;
