I'm trying to use whiptail as it's a lightweight alternative to dialog and seems to be installed by default in most systems (i.e., people don't have to go around and install it if it's "forgotten" or wasn't installed by default).

I am writing using (I believe) the tty driver to talk to an RS-485 seria...

I'm working to improve the long languishing Linux build process for Bitfighter, and am having problems with make. My process is actually quite simple, and since make is (nearly) universal, I want to stick with it if I can. Below I've attached my current Makefile, which works, but clumsily so. I'm looking for ways to improve it, and ha...
Greetings, While I've gotten many answer off this site, this is my first question, and I'm kinda excited about it... :) I've written a script that cleans up .csv files, removing some bad commas and bad quotes (bad, means they break an in house program we use to transform these files) using sed: # remove all commas, and re-insert t...
