If it comes back, it needs to be modified to use curses - the hardcoded
terminal escapes for a bunch of 1970s terminals is kinda cute in a retro
way; it's also kinda embarassing. I also miss it in base, though

Just to get back to the original subject - fully support {} around single

Would be great to have that codified (ha!)

As a service to the community, I hereby present my colorls script:

BEGIN { black = 30; red = 31; green = 32; yellow = 33; blue = 34; purple =

Distributing mozilla root certs is hardly "TNF takes on the role of a

And we need to start thinking laterally here. Certs are necessarily

Is there any way the _DYNAMIC entry could be abused - to provide hints
on range of aslr, or to allow dynamic linking from within the static
binary from an abused stack or similar?

FYI,
I use a very low-tech awk script to create tabular output into json. I've
yet to find a use-case for converting into html, but I'm sure it exists and
is just as easily implemented in a few lines of awk.

I've put up a patch for review at:
http://www.netbsd.org/~agc/calendar-20160601.diff
It adds the -v argument to calendar(1) to print the version number and exit:
% calendar -v
calendar-20160601

All feedback gratefully received.
Thanks,
Alistair
Living on the edge and top posting aggresively, these changes would be good
to have.
Thanks,
Alistair
