Thanks as always Laurent. Is there any news on any future s6/skarnet software to tease us with? :D

(Needed for the s6 release.) Mostly bugfixes, and some additions for siovec management. The "major" number has been bumped because some functions (buffer_getvall, buffer_putvall) changed interfaces. http://skarnet.org/software/skalibs/ git://git.skarnet.org/skalibs * execline-2.0.2.1 is out. (Needed for the s6 release.) Bugfix release (ifthenelse wasn't working properly). Also, a -D option has been added to backtick, to have a default value in case the called program fails. http://skarnet.org/software/execline/ git://git.skarnet.org/execline * s6-2.1.1.0 is out. - Access control for listing has been added to s6-fdholderd. - s6-log has been overhauled. * The -t and -e options have been deprecated, as well as the "e" directive (which is now called "2"). They still work, but s6-log prints a warning message to stderr when it encounters them; and they will disappear in a future version. * New "t" and "T" directives have been added for timestamping. "T" prints ISO 8601 stamps, for those who insist on it. * A new "1" directive allows logging to stdout. This is useful, for instance, if a service signals readiness via a precise log line: selecting that log line and piping it to a listening program on stdout (that then writes a 'U' event to the service's fifodir) gives more options for readiness notification support. * The script now lives in the stack, not the heap. This is mostly an artistic change, but if stars align correctly, it may save you a page of RAM. http://skarnet.org/software/s6/ git://git.skarnet.org/s6 Enjoy, Bug-reports welcome as always. -- Laurent
