OpenBSD 7.4 is now supporting the Unicode encoding at system level, including the Chinese language.

Just wonder to have in your .xinitrc (or in .xsession for xenodm) this:

export LC_CTYPE=zh_CN.UTF-8

Hello,

I got inspired by the Tiny Tools article, by Gerald J. Holzmann, with some useful shell tools for coding on Unix-like systems.

The article is severals years old (I. Software, jan/feb 2016) and the code should be adapted to OpenBSD. But I tried to convert them: the code follows, it was uploaded in MagicPot1 like "Tiny-Tools" and it is on GitHub as well.

Two more utilities from packages to debug your system:

lspci displays detailed information about all PCI buses and devices.

pkg_add pciutils

You can run it in this way:
wiz# lspci

dmidecode reports information about your system's hardware as described in your system BIOS

pkg_add dmidecode

You can run it in this way:
wiz# dmidecode | less

NB: dmidecode requires root access and access to the kernel memory (kern.allowkmem=1)

The Italian calendar.

You can find it below, in MagicPot1.

To use it just copy from the calendar repo, /usr/share/calendar, your desired calendars - including the italian one - to ~/.calendar/.

Then create an index file "calendar", in the same folder, listing your calendars eg:

/*
* My own calendar files
*/

#ifndef _calendar_
#define _calendar_

#include <calendar.it>
#include <calendar.computer>

#endif /* !_calendar_ */


Then simply launch "calendar" or inside eg ~/.profile:

/usr/bin/calendar -A 5
