JC's Miscellaneous Tools
JC's Miscellaneous Tools
This directory (~jc/src/misc) contains an assortment of useful programs,
Most of the tools here are designed to be linked to the
V ("verbose") package, so you might want to make first.
Next, if you are a new visitor, you might want to check out a few
of the tools, to get an idea of the sort of things found here.
-
align
-
takes input that should be in columns, and adds spaces so that the
columns line up. Columns may be left- or right-aligned, or centered.
-
chars
-
is a tool for generating arbitrary strings of characters based
on their names or octal or hex values. It is designed to be used
in scripts, to talk to other software that requires various sorts
of untypable input.
-
box
-
draws several styles of boxes around its input.
-
clmr
-
is a general-purpose close of the Unix cp, ln, mv and rm commands,
but much more programmer-friendly. They can be used in scripts
without danger that the user will be harrassed by strange messages.
Also, if called with a capitalized name, they will automatically
back up target files that exist rather than overwriting them.
It also implements the "lc" command, which attempts a link,
and if that fails, does a copy instead.
-
factor
-
accepts an integer on its command line and output its prime factors.
-
ipad
-
returns addresses of hosts and interfaces.
The output has no extraneous noise,
so this command can be easily used in shell scripts.
-
mailfile
-
fixes email file-ownership problems that are common on many systems.
-
relink
-
searches through directories and file lists looking for identical
files, and replaces them with links to a single file. This can
result in significant savings of disk space, as well as putting
multiple source trees back into sync.
-
slowcopy
-
is like cat(1), but copies the data in N-byte chunks, with S-second
pauses between. This can be used in communication tests to generate
data at a controlled rate.
-
sorthosts
-
accepts dotted-decimal notation and sorts it into increasing
numeric order.
-
synclock
-
synchronizes clocks among networked machines. You can give it a
list of host names or addresses, and your clock will be set to the
mean value of those that respond. There is a "forever" option to
repeat at a given interval.
-
tcpclient
-
is a prototype TCP client program, which establishes a connection
to a server, exchanges a few messages, and shows you the results.
-
tcpserver
-
is a prototype TCP server program, which listens on a port,
accepts connections and messages, and generates a few simple
kinds of replies.
-
unixtime
-
accepts various sorts of dates and times on the command line
or stdin, and outputs the corresponding Unix 32-bit timestamp.
-
xor
-
reads two files and outputs their results xor-ed together.
This is useful as an "unbreakable" encryption tool, as well
as a way of demonstrating that any file is an encryption of
any other (so every web page and email message is actually
encrypted pornography ;-).
Most of the programs here were written by John Chambers on an
assortment of projects, often with a bit of help from friends and
colleagues. Some of these programs duplicate tools that are found
on some (but not all) Unix systems; having them here makes it easy
to install them on a system where they don't exist. Some are clones
of the standard Unix library programs, but with "improved"
functionality. For example, see the "rm" command, which is useful
in scripts because it doesn't harass the user like /bin/rm usually
does these days. There's also a Rm that renames the files rather
than unlinking them.
There is a Makefile entry to build the $(BIN) directory and fill it
with the programs here. You should note that there are a few
programs (addr, ping) here that need to be setuid or setgid; to make
or install them, you need to be root.
The tar kit for this directory is made relative to this directory,
so to unpack it, you should do something like:
mkdir misc
cd misc
zcat ../misc.tar.gz | tar xf -
make test
make install

# First, before anything here will work, you need to create a #
# local.h file. There are a number of *_local.h files here; #
# pick one as a prototype and copy it to local.h; then edit #
# local.h file to handle the system-dependent stuff. #

Most of the C code here has been "verbosized" in a way that may not be
familiar to many C programmers. The main thing to note is that the
"real" sources have .b as a suffix, not .c, and the Makefile builds
the .c file from the .b file by running it through the b-c script.
This is a rather trivial little script, really just a call of sed,
but it's convenient to put it in a scrit. What it does is selects
among the source lines with : in column 1. Such lines can be either
included in the .c source or blanked out. This is a simpler and
cleaner scheme than complex #ifdefs to make multiple versions from
the same source. I mostly just use it to enable or disable the
debug lines. This way, they take one line rather than three.
Most of the programs here use the V package. If you don't have it,
go get it and build it, and then come back here. It should be found
wherever you found the tar kit for the misc package. The best place
to install it is in ../V/, i.e., next door to the misc package.
Next, edit the Makefile and make sure it's right for your system.
Note in particular that it needs a pointer to wherever you have
installed the V package.
To build the non-setuid programs, type:
make
make bin
To build the rest, become super-user and type:
make install
There are also some test programs in the test subdirectory. You can
run them all by typing
make test
Of course, you can just use this as the first make command.
Note that most of these use the ../V/libV.a library, which must be
present or not much will link. Make sure that you have the V package
compiled ...
There are some programs here that the "make all" entry doesn't
build. They are typically the ones that are hopelessly
system-dependent. You might look around after the make works, and
see what odds and ends are of interest.

#!/bin/sh
# This directory (~jc/misc) contains an assortment of useful programs,
# Most of the programs here were written by John Chambers on an
# assortment of projects, often with a bit of help from friends and
# colleagues. Some of these programs duplicate tools that are found
# on some (but not all) Unix systems; having them here makes it easy
# to install them on a system where they don't exist. Some are clones
# of the standard Unix library programs, but with "improved"
# functionality. For example, see the "rm" command, which is useful
# in scripts because it doesn't harass the user like /bin/rm usually
# does these days. There's also a Rm that renames the files rather
# than unlinking them.
# There is a Makefile entry to build the $(BIN) directory and fill it
# with the programs here. You should note that there are a few
# programs (addr, ping) here that need to be setuid or setgid; to make
# or install them, you need to be root.
# The tar kit for the misc directory is made relative to the parent,
# directory so to unpack it, you should do something like:
gunzip <misc.tar.gz | tar xf -
cd misc
make
make test
make install
# Notes:
# # - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - #
# # The V package is used by nearly everything in misc, so you #
# # will want to unpack it first. If V and misc are adjacent #
# # directories, then you can do a make inside misc and it will #
# # cd to ../V and do a make there. #
# # - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - #
# # First, before anything here will work, you need to create a #
# # local.h file. There are a number of *_local.h files here; #
# # pick one as a prototype and copy it to local.d; then edit #
# # local.h file to handle the system-dependent stuff. #
# # - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - #
# Most of the C code here has been "dbgized" in a way that may not be
# familiar to many C programmers. The main thing to note is that the
# "real" sources have .b as a suffix, not .c, and the Makefile builds
# the .c file from the .b file by running it through the b-c script.
# This is a rather trivial little script, really just a call of sed,
# but it's convenient to put it in a scrit. What it does is selects
# among the source lines with : in column 1. Such lines can be either
# included in the .c source or blanked out. This is a simpler and
# cleaner scheme than complex #ifdefs to make multiple versions from
# the same source. I mostly just use it to enable or disable the
# debug lines. This way, they take one line rather than three.
# Most of the programs here use the dbg package. If you don't have it,
# go get it and build it, and then come back here. It should be found
# wherever you found the tar kit for the misc package. The best place
# to install it is in ../dbg, i.e., next door to the misc package.
# Next, edit the Makefile and make sure it's right for your system.
# Note in particular that it needs a pointer to wherever you have
# installed the dbg package.
# To build the non-setuid programs, type:
# make
# make bin
# To build the rest, become super-user and type:
# make install
# There are also some test programs in the test subdirectory. You can
# run them all by typing
# make test
# Of course, you can just use this as the first make command.
# Note that most of these use the ../dbg/libdbg.a library, which must be
# present or not much will link. Make sure that you have the dbg package
# compiled ...
# There are some programs here that the "make all" entry doesn't
# build. They are typically the ones that are hopelessly
# system-dependent. You might look around after the make works, and
# see what odds and ends are of interest.
