I've been using them for bash functions, like this for example (the double braces are used in this example):

Code: Select all

os.system(f'''tar xf foo-{version}{extension} && cd foo-{version}
./configure
make
sudo make install
sudo install -v -m644    doc/{{*.gif,index.html}} \
                    /usr/share/doc/foo-{version}
cd .. && rm -rf foo*
''')
tfw you're almost done with the 64-bit scripts, but you're likely going to take the external text files and implement them in this manner to save calling second scripts for bash.

tfw an update to mobile Firefox (Fennec) breaks Greasemonkey, so you can't use the Barbara theme on mobile until that gets fixed...

That's on a 3700X is the funny thing, but I still want one that has even more threads if I'll have to compile so often. :P

tfw you aren't in the humour of merging all of these scripts.

tfw steam is broken again, and you go back on the old post here to check how to fix it, only to find out it still doesn't work, then realise your post had a typo and said ca-certificate.crt instead of ca-certificates.crt. :mefiant:
