<p>In the end, I only kept <em>xlhtml</em> as I do not use the others anymore. Surprisingly enough, only one of the packages (<em>chronicle</em>) was out of date. I disowned all the others, so if you want, you can pick them up.</p></div></description><category>arch</category><category>linux</category><category>software</category><guid>http://www.duckland.org/posts/updates-to-aur-packages.html</guid><pubDate>Tue, 09 Jun 2015 22:19:48 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>FreeBSD Challenge II, End Report</title><link>http://www.duckland.org/posts/30daychallengefreebsdsa.html</link><dc:creator>Don Harper</dc:creator><description><div><p>And, again, I hit something which is causing massive disk performance issues. That, and suspend/resume does not work on either laptop.</p>

<p>I would try to debug the issues, but that means learning a whole new set of tools, and I will not have time for a while. Next week, I am in week long meetings which will run late every day, and then I have to finish writing and present a training class the last week of the month. The hour or two I can spare will be far better spent for me by backup, re-installing <a class="reference external" href="http://www.archlinux.org">ArchLinux</a> than by starting to learn the tools. Yes, a bit of a cop-out, but I need the machines to do what I need to do. I will keep the servers FreeBSD, however, as it works great there.</p>

<p>I will revisit the issue of FreeBSD on the laptops when I either get new kit, or support for my models gets better.</p></div></description><category>30DayChallenge</category><category>FreeBSD</category><category>linux</category><category>sa</category><guid>http://www.duckland.org/posts/30daychallengefreebsdsa.html</guid><pubDate>Fri, 06 Feb 2015 12:43:32 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>Command-Line blog posts</title><link>http://www.duckland.org/posts/200805command-line-blog-posts.html</link><dc:creator>Don Harper</dc:creator><description><h1>Command-Line blog posts</h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>So, it only seems fitting that I should talk about a command-line interface to posting on this blog. No, I do not mean using <a href="http://links.twibright.com"> links</a> or the like, but a way to post from the command line.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>So, this post is being typed up in <a href="http://www.vim.org">vim</a> on my <a href="http://www.fedoraproject.org">Fedora 8</a> laptop. I will use this great little tool I found called <em>wppost</em> to post. <em>wwpost</em> is part of the <a href="http://www.perl.org">perl</a> module <a href="http://search.cpan.org/~leocharre/WordPress-Post-1.04">WordPress::Post</a>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>A brief summary of its commands are bellow:</p>
|
|
|
|
<pre><code> -c category, can be a list separated by commas, no spaces
|
|
-t title
|
|
-i description, main body of post, if it has a slash, it is interpreted as a file to slurp
|
|
like a text or html file
|
|
-D iso formatted date for post, can be left out
|
|
-T if there are image attachments, place them as thumbnails only, with link, not just resized
|
|
</code></pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>Some usage examples taken from the man page:</p>
|
|
|
|
<pre><code> Most basic of usage, (provided you have a ~/.wppost file)
|
|
|
|
wppost -t 'hi everyone' -i 'i just wanted to say hello'
|
|
|
|
If you want to specify two different categories:
|
|
|
|
wppost -t 'Another Apple' -i 'Apples are really great. I do love them so.' -c food,rant -D 20071231
|
|
|
|
If the body of the post is in a file
|
|
|
|
wppost -t 'title here' -i ./content.txt
|
|
|
|
If the content of the post is in a file and you want to use the file
|
|
name as the title
|
|
|
|
wppost -i ./Title_Here.txt
|
|
|
|
If you want to have file attachments:
|
|
|
|
wppost -t 'recent photos' -i 'these are recent pictures i took' ./*jpg
|
|
</code></pre>
|
