Bash programmable completion for -nvalue / --name=value options

I was reading [an old debian-administration.org post][debadm] about [Bash programmable completion][pcomp], and I had the same question as this person:

I created a script and I use bash_completion, but I cannot figure out how to allow the completion of "--name=value1 --name=value2" (the "=" sign in the middle stop any other completion, and I tried to play with suffixes/prefixes without any success :s

A classy .screenrc with LSF support

Here's a sensible .screenrc that does the following:

• gives you a useful and hip-looking status line
• tries really hard to enable 256 color support for programs that support it, like Vim
• disables the visual bell and splash screen
• remaps window #0 to be Ctrl+A, `, which feels more natural to me

"Uncuddle" arguments like -pVALUE, or --param=VALUE

Here's a Bash function that will separate option-value pairs where the option and value are glued together without an intervening space.

You give it:

• a bunch of possible prefixes as arguments, like -p, --param=, and --parameter=
• and as the last argument, the maybe-option-value-pair to be checked ($1 in the while (( $# )) loop below)

and it returns the VALUE part, or the empty string if there was no VALUE part (the option and argument were separate).

Hello, collaborators!

If you have the ability to do so, please compute SHA1 hashes for any files you intend to share with the Weirauch Lab. These hashes, or "checksums," are critical for verifying that we've received your data 100% intact and unmodified.

You will need to save these checksums into a file, then transmit or store that file alongside the original data. Instructions for macOS and Linux are directly below. For Windows, please follow the instructions in the "Generating checksums on Windows" section.

Generating checksums on Unix

Here is a one-liner that will do the job on a typical Unix/Linux system. macOS is also Unix, but if you are not familiar with the command line, see the section "Extra guidance for Mac users," below. If you use Windows and have Git Bash or Cygwin available, this method should also work for you.

Pretty-printing KeePass XML export files

First, create an XML export using [KeePass for Windows][kp]—not KeePassX, the export format is completely different.

Then add a line like:
