The #include statement in C is read by the compiler at compilation time, and included in the code as if it were part of the...

Re: automatic notifications through dunst

It's been a while since I last played with it, but I remember that the best trick to auto choose the battery was:

Code: Select all

BAT=/sys/class/power_supply/BAT*
Shell expension has never failed me here, even with dash as /bin/sh. And most people only have a single battery anyway ;)

Re: Post your Command line tricks

Hey, did you know? You can interact with the X resources database using its client: "xrdb".
And as every database client, it can both write and READ data to/from the database:

Code: Select all

xrdb | grep -E '\*color[0-9]*:'
