simple portscanner

Thanks, I was wondering where it went after the suck of nmap 6.0 landed.

How do I use portscan if I just want to check in the same way I have
done in the past with nmap, what ports are open on a machine? IIUC
portscan has to specify ports individually which is a little
cumbersome. Be good if it was more of a drop in replacement in that
regard.

./portscan -p1-1024 webconverger.org # doesn't work for me for
example, which I now see in your original email

Cheers,

github mirror

Hi guys,

What are your github user ids, so I can add them to the scklss "Owners
Team" page?

Trying to figure out who reserved "suckless" on github:
http://twitter.com/kaihendry/status/205228871329656832

hghub.org no worky for me, all I see is "Under active development!".
Nonetheless it would be great if you could help figure out the optimal
hg-git-hg work flow and tools required to pull it off.

Regards,

[dwm] dynamic environment variables

I am wondering if it is possible to implement some (synamic) management of
environment variables, so, for example I could change HTTP_PROXY when I hook my
laptop in a new place, and all the processes started from now on would respect
it.  I see some problems, it would work if I start my browser via dmenu, but
not from terminal or tabbed.  It seems that one cannot (easily) modify
/proc/PID/environ.  Sucking window managers do that with dbus which is dirty...

Sincerely,
s.

[st] [patch] add font selection to command line

Hello,

this is small patch to add -f and -F switches to change FONT and
BOLDFONT defaults.

I messed up...used glib, dbus, and friends. Need help to fix this mistake

Hello,

I messed up bad...I thought by using glib/GIO functionality it would
make it easier for me. However, I realized now that everything is so
much more complicated.

I used glib/GIO/gvfs to do the following:

 1. Mounting USB disks, partitions, and samba shares.
    - Suckless alternative: libc, libmount?
 2. Getting filesystem size, file modification times, etc.
    - Suckless alternative: libc, anything else?
 3. Spawn tasks asynchronously and return the stderr and stdout output.
    - Suckless alternative: libspawn
 4. Dictionary data type to store key value pairs.
    - Suckless alternative: hash table with libc?
 5. String utility
    - Suckless alternative: libporty

Any recommendations on lighter weight libraries I can use to accomplish
the above tasks?

Thanks,
Amit

changing sizes in the master area

Hello,

An unpatched dwm cannot change the sizes of windows in the master area, can it?

Thanks

swerc v. werc

What's the difference between swerc and werc?

The only info I can find is this little snippet from the README:

"swerc is simple werc, a fork of Uriel's werc."

suckless document generator for C code

Hello,

I'm looking for a document generator for C code. Mainly to document APIs
to give to UI developers.

Looked at quite a few options and it seems gtk-doc is suitable. A couple
of kernel projects use it (libudev) and it doesn't have a huge
dependency list.

What do you all think? What do you use?

Thanks,
Amit
