scriptlets

A collection of tiny but helpful shell scripts for personal use. Tested with current Ubuntu. Licensed under GPL v3.

To install all scripts to ~/bin (by creating symbolic links), clone the project and type make. Or run the bootstrap script:

curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/krlmlr/scriptlets/master/bootstrap | sh

Start RStudio with an .Rproj project file found in the current directory. If no project file is found, it is created using usethis::use_rstudio().

texstudio-here

Start a new instance of texstudio with a .txss session file found in the current directory.

copy-real-path

Copies its argument to the clipboard.

ghpsd

GitHub Pages in a separate directory. Allows efficiently maintaining and synchronizing the contents of the gh-pages branch in a subdirectory of the main branch. Supports subcommands init, repair (in case you want to undo init, works only before pushing), merge and checkout.

Use ghpsd init for creating an empty gh-pages subdirectory that will hold the contents of your gh-pages branch. After adding to this subdirectory, use ghpsd merge for updating the gh-pages branch. Note that you still have to push to GitHub.

It works by cloning a copy of the repo into a shadow subdirectory named .gh-pages (which is added to .gitignore, too); this makes updating the gh-pages branch work seamless. Call ghpsd checkout to recreate the hidden .gh-pages folder, this clones locally and does not require network access.

You can also add the call ghpsd merge to your commit hook.

gh-mirror

Mirrors GitHub issues in a subdirectory of .git for offline use. A low-tech wrapper for wget.

git-mmv

Allows you to write git mmv to move several Git-controlled files at once, with the usual mmv syntax.
