Open Source Unix Shell Software Development Software for Mobile Operating Systems

A useful collection of batch files and scripts for daily purposes (backup, security, system management, etc.) and development

This is the Palm Translation Utilities project, a set of perl and bash scripts used to make translating Palm programs that use PILRC easier. Software currently works, but may not handle edge cases correctly.

Some tasks are too menial for a dedicated script but still too cumbersome even with the many neat one-liner options of "perl -E". This small script fills the gap: various one-letter commands & magic variables (with meaningful aliases too) and more nifty loop options take Perl programming to the command line. Fully imports List::Util. With no program on the command line, starts a pl Shell. How to "e(cho)" values, including from "@A(RGV)", with single "$q(uote)" & double "$Q(uote)". Same for hard-to-print values: $  pl  'e  "${q}Perl$q",  "$Q@A$Q"'  one-liner $  pl  'e  \"Perl",  \@A,  undef'  one-liner Loop over args, printing each with line ending.  And same, SHOUTING: $  pl  -opl  ''  Perl  one-liner $  pl  -opl  '$_  =  uc'  Perl  one-liner Print up to 3 matching lines, resetting count (and "$.") for each file: $  pl  -rP3  '/Perl.*one.*liner/'  file* Count hits in magic statistics hash "%N(UMBER)": $  pl  -n  '++$N{$1}  while  /(Perl|one|liner)/g'  file*
