After reading [WayBack] Script job killer – MikroTik RouterOS I put lines like these into a few of my frequently running scripts:
/system script environment get systemScriptJobCountTypeIsCommand
:global systemScriptJobCountTypeIsCommand
:local scriptsOfTypeCommandCount [$systemScriptJobCountTypeIsCommand];
:if ($scriptsOfTypeCommandCount > 4) do={
$outputError value=("$scriptName; too many runnings commands ($scriptsOfTypeCommandCount); bailing out early");
:return -1;
}
They in turn use this underlying function:
:local scriptName "Function.systemScriptJobCountTypeIsCommand.rsc"
/system script environment remove [ find where name="systemScriptJobCountTypeIsCommand" ];
:global systemScriptJobCountTypeIsCommand do={
:local result [:len [/system script job find where type=command]];
# :put "result=$result"
:return $result;
}
## Example:
## /import scripts/Function.systemScriptJobCountTypeIsCommand.rsc
## :put [$systemScriptJobCountTypeIsCommand];

This is a very good comparison of how to use reStructuredText and Markdown well for rendering at GitHub: [WayBack] Common markup for Markdown and reStructuredText · GitHub.
It is being updated by Alex Dupuy over time at https://gist.github.com/dupuy/1855764 and has two sections:
And it refers to http://pandoc.org/try/ which I had missed when starting with reStructuredText a long time ago.
Examples in there are actually more useful to me than these reStructuredText ones:

The Compact Cassette has been on a comeback path for a few years now and around this time of the year, I expect the [WayBack] Cassette Store Day to happen (check out https://www.facebook.com/CassetteStoreDay/ for the exact date).
So it’s time to re-share the The Daily Drawing by Lorie Ransom on the right.

In this article we will review sed, the well-known stream editor, and share 15 tips to use it in order to accomplish the goals mentioned earlier, and more.
I like it because 15 Useful ‘sed’ Command Tips and Tricks for Daily Linux System Administration Tasks has a lot of screenshots showing what each expression actually does.

I started thinking about writing this post way before [WayBack] When +Google Assistant gets a mind of their own… – Jeroen Wiert Pluimers – Google+.
Though I’ll focus on Google Assistant, the competition (Alexa, Cortana, Siri) have about the same level of incompetence.
Though living in The Netherlands, I use the English version of Google Assistant as it won’t be available in the foreseeable future: [WayBack] Google Assistant in het Nederlands voorlopig toekomstmuziek.
This means that I cannot use Dutch words for destinations, but find English ones.
navigate to Schiphol trainstationnavigate to Amsterdam Airport ArrivalsThe odd thing is that after switching phones, the latter wants to perform this navigation by public traffic, whereas my former phone it would default to navigation for driving by car.
Basically the only interactions that work sort of OK are calling persons and navigating to places.
what's my next appointment succeedswhat's my current appointment (in case you are late, for instance because of traffic conditions) failsThis allows for aliases to persons like my wife, my brother and my mother. But often it:
call my wife mobile, it sometimes presents search results, for instance on “How to spy on my wife’s calls tracking for free”)After defining these aliases, these actions usually work OK:
call my brother mobilecall my mother at homeContrary to calling, where you can define many aliases, you can only define 2 navigation aliases: home and work. Which means these all fail:
navigate to my brother at worknavigate to my mother at homeHeck, even the simple variations fail:
navigate to my brothernavigate to my motherA cool feature would be navigate to my next appointment, but that fails too. No surprise though, as the simpler navigation commands fail.
The best way I found to navigate is to – just before you leave – search on Google Maps in your browser for the route, then open Navigation on your phone (this presumes they use the same account).
Also, since switching phones, I have to indicate how I want to navigate:
navigate home by carnavigate to Amsterdam Airport Arrivals by carStarting applications is a pain.
Examples that work
start pokemon goThese work unreliably:
start navigation sometimes opens the map, but at other times asks where to navigate toThese fail at all:
start dialer (opens a Google search, but fails to start the stock Android Dialer App)start ex-dialer (my dialer of choice: ExDialer)start player FM (fails to locate Player.FM)It is far from intuitive what kinds of phrases will work, sometimes work or will fail.
I could do a search for how to better phrase my requests, but average users won’t
The Google Voice Assistant still has a long way to go to become useable.

Wow: nojhan/liquidprompt: A full-featured & carefully designed adaptive prompt for Bash & Zsh
This is really useful!
via:
Sort of tanslated from the first “via” (note that “mit Alles und Scharf” is hard to translate; it’s somewhere between “everything but the kitchen sink, but done right” and “right on the money”):
Bash Prompt Overkill: https://github.com/nojhan/liquidprompt is a Bash “Prompt doing it all right”-extension, which doesn’t care how much any feature costs as we have cores, gigabytes and SSD.
Liquid Prompt automagically recognises context and enables a plethora of features in the prompt when needed based on that context.
It’s like pixie dust for your prompt.
You can configure everything, but you don’t have to: the out of the box experience is already like pixie dust for your prompt.
It works on OS X too and is part of homebrew:
$ brew install liquidprompt ==> Using the sandbox ==> Downloading https://github.com/nojhan/liquidprompt/archive/v_1.11.tar.gz ==> Downloading from https://codeload.github.com/nojhan/liquidprompt/tar.gz/v_1.11 ######################################################################## 100.0% ==> Caveats Add the following lines to your bash or zsh config (e.g. ~/.bash_profile): if [ -f /usr/local/share/liquidprompt ]; then . /usr/local/share/liquidprompt fi If you'd like to reconfigure options, you may do so in ~/.liquidpromptrc. A sample file you may copy and modify has been installed to /usr/local/share/liquidpromptrc-dist Don't modify the PROMPT_COMMAND variable elsewhere in your shell config; that will break things. ==> Summary 🍺 /usr/local/Cellar/liquidprompt/1.11: 7 files, 125.6K, built in 3 seconds [jeroenp:~/Versioned] 10s $

It might sound like I’m late in the game, but remember that blog posts are usually scheduled like a year in advance.
So I found out a long time ago (I think it’s Matthijs ter Woord who attended me) about Visual Studio Code.
At the start [WayBack] it was more limited (from memory something like C#, TypeScript, Java Script languages and frameworks Node.js and ASP.NET 5) than my other development environments but now it’s much richer.
It’s based on the Electron framework which I kew from the Atom.io editor and Koush‘s framework Electron Chrome that wraps Chrome Apps in Electron so he ensured Vysor would live after Google will kill Chrome Apps.
Oh it’s free and runs multi-platform which I like a lot (and was one of the reasons to start using Atom.io): Mac OS X, Windows and Linux are supported.
So here are a few links to get started:
I got reminded a while back** that it is now supported by OmniPascal [WayBack] which I like because of my Turbo Pascal -> VAX/VMS -> csh -> Delphi -> AS/400 -> .NET background.
Like Visual Studio Code is updated often, the Omni Pascal blog [WayBack] shows regular updates and I like it a lot better than the Lazarus IDE (I’m not a visual RAD person: I’m a RAD code person) especially the refactorings.
So start playing with it. I will post more about my Visual Studio Code experience in due time.

** via [WayBack] Finally: OmniPascal 0.11.0 released – Implement an interface via key stroke …

There is so much great stuff in reStructuredText, take for instance [WayBack] reStructuredText Interpreted Text Roles where basically can create your own role (for instance :csharp: or :delphi: roles based on :code: for syntax-highlighted code blocks given the right syntax highlighters).
I got there via this great piece by[WayBack] Chris who answered [WayBack] Inline code highlighting in reStructuredText – Stack Overflow:
Having looked into this some more I stumbled upon the document reStructuredText Interpreted Text Roles. From this document:
Interpreted text uses backquotes (`) around the text. An explicit role marker may optionally appear before or after the text, delimited with colons. For example:
This is `interpreted text` using the default role. This is :title:`interpreted text` using an explicit role.It seems that there is a
coderole, so you can simply type:code:`a = b + c`to render an inline code block. To get syntax highlighting you can define a custom role. For example
.. role:: bash(code) :language: bashwhich you can then use like so:
Here is some awesome bash code :bash:`a = b + c`.Note, the document I link to makes no mention of the version of docutils to which it refers. The code role is not available in docutils 0.8.1 (which is the only version I have to test against).
