# Function patch_wsl_vscode_node
# Note: This is a hack for wsl vscode when using a distor than canno run binaries outside the path
# such as in the case of void linux. This hack also assumes that node is installed on the wsl linux distro
# Every vscode update will change the folder where the binaries that wsl vscode uses
# Hence on every update you will get an error when trying to run code from wsl like the following
#  ${HOME}/.vscode-server/bin/8b3775030ed1a69b13e4f4c628c612102e30a681/bin/remote-cli/code: 12: ${HOME}/.vscode-server/bin/8b3775030ed1a69b13e4f4c628c612102e30a681/node: not found

The Need

• You need a raw dump of lolcat colorized output that includes the ANSI escape sequences for the colors.
• You need this dump saved to a file.

The Solution

Pipe your output through lolcat, use the --force flag and then redirect the output to a file.

Examples

1. Capture a raw dump of the output of a bash script piped through lolcat to the file colors.txt

• bash my-script.sh | lolcat --force > colors.txt

       return arr2d.map(fruitLoc => (treeLoc + fruitLoc));
    }
    const fRange = function (s, t, arr2d) {
        let a, b;
        a = 0; b = 0;
        arr2d.forEach((f, i) => {
            if (i === 0) { // apple count

Remove an element from an array

Arrays in bash were not designed for use as mutable data structures. They are primarily used for storing lists of items in a single variable without needing to waste a character as a delimiter (e.g., to store a list of strings which can contain whitespace). We can however remove an element from an array by looping through the array and rebuilding it as a temporary array, set the array to the temporary array and then finally unset the temporary array.

#!/bin/bash

example() {
 local i args tmp_args=()
 args=("$@")
 echo "${#args[@]} args before the filter: ${args[*]}"
 if  [[ " ${args[*]} " =~ " --load-deps-locally " ]]; then

The Need

You want fully colorized output for a unified diff of two files or directories (recursively) but you do not want to add any additional dependencies such as colordiff or grc

The Solution

Pipe output of the unified diff through sed and add colors using ANSI escape sequences based on the pattern of the output.

diff -ur --minimal file1.txt file2.txt | \
sed 's/^[^-+@]/\x1b[38;5;34m&/;s/^-/\x1b[48;5;106m-/;s/^+/\x1b[42m+/;s/^@/\x1b[48;5;130m@/;s/$/\x1b[0m/'

For any of you that are still learning to read sed commands and escape sequences, the rules of parsing the output are as follows:

ANSI Escape Sequences

Standard escape codes are prefixed with Escape:

• Ctrl-Key: ^[
• Octal: \033
• Unicode: \u001b
• Hexadecimal: \x1B
• Decimal: 27
