[Haifux] cat-like command
Is there a command something like cat that will copy a file into the copy/paste buffer, so I can paste the contents somewhere after running the command? Also I'd like to find someone willing to give me an account on a big-endian machine. I'm willing to give that person investments in Ebenezer Enterprises in exchange.

That would need to be an X command, as the command line has no "paste buffer", on the X server. I'm not aware of such a command, but it shouldn't be too difficult to write. Also I'd like to find someone willing to give me an account on a big-endian machine. I may be able to arrange something. I have Sparc and PowerPC machines. I'll try to figure out how I can expose them to you. How long do you need the access for? What type of access do you need?

I should note that I was told that it doesn't work on KDE, and when I'm running KDE, I'm using the following script: <<< #!/bin/bash # Copy standard input or a string to the KDE clipboard. if [[ $# -eq 0 ]]; then input="$(cat)" else input="$*" fi if which klipper | grep -q kde3 ; then dcop klipper klipper setClipboardContents "$input" else dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=org.kde.klipper \ /klipper org.kde.klipper.klipper.setClipboardContents \ string:"$input" fi >>> I call it "klip".

"mipsel" is little endian MIPS. arch/mips/configs/lemote2f_defconfig has: # CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN is not set CONFIG_CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN=y (I just got one such laptop. Looks nice, though the included software could be improved. They seem to be making an effort and I see quite a few changesets from @lemote.com addresses in 2.6.33) OTOH, you can buy a used Mac/PowerPC -- Tzafrir Cohen | tzaf...@jabber.org | VIM is http://tzafrir.org.il || a Mutt's tzaf...@cohens.org.il || best ICQ# 16849754 || friend ___ Haifux mailing list Haifux@haifux.org http://hamakor.org.il/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/haifux
