I just read this message by an OpenBSD developer on the prevalence of
strlcpy in the OpenBSD ports tree:
http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-tech&m=138733933417096&w=2
I'd like to know what the opinion here is of these functions. I've so
far avoided them, but it seems like there's an argument to be made
The reason all the existing solutions are so sucky is that they try to
solve too many problems. I think that if you deconstruct what you want
this program to do, the concept falls apart a little.
I'm not sure how "suckless" it is in terms of the code - for all I know
it's a maintainers' nightmare

Sorry, this should have been:

tar xzf filename.tar.gz ~/scratch/

Yes, there aren't enough Patterns in suckless software. Why doesn't st use
a client server model? Why doesn't the sbase implementation of split?
Perhaps dwm should follow a distributed pub-sub pattern over COM for window
control.

Wouldn't the new message be replaced with the old so quickly as to be
unnoticeable, unless you passed it many lines or delayed EOF with a script?

+1. I spend far too much time in sucky clients like FireFTP.

Perhaps if you had quoted someone it would have been less of a non

There are good reasons to do this in C. I work on a system with very
limited battery life and CPU power, but I want to update the status bar
once a second for various reasons.
