A homebrew formula for installing bsdgames-osx. For now, just plunk it into /usr/local/Library/Formula/ and run "brew install bsdgames-osx". Tested successfully in MacOS X 10.7 and 10.8. If it fails to compile, try adding the "--with-clang" option. Some versions of clang will also require CFLAGS="-std=c11" to compile correctly.

Basic principles of using tcl-expect scripts

Intro

TCL-Expect scripts are an amazingly easy way to script out laborious tasks in the shell when you need to be interactive with the console. Think of them as a "macro" or way to programmaticly step through a process you would run by hand. They are similar to shell scripts but utilize the .tcl extension and a different #! call.

Setup Your Script

The first step, similar to writing a bash script, is to tell the script what it's executing under. For expect we use the following:

#!/usr/bin/expect

Setup armv7h chroot under x86_64 host (Archlinux/Archlinuxarm biased)

Setup armv7h chroot under x86_64 host (Archlinux/Archlinuxarm biased)

Simple way to setup an arm chroot for building packages for your arm devices. This is an alternative to cross-compiling where you are limited to only linking against the libs in your toolchain.

Setup chroot-fs

You can store the chroot wherever you like. I choose to store it in a disk-image which I mount to my filesystem.

Moving commits between branches

Example: Moving up to a few commits to another branch

Branch A has commits (X,Y) that also need to be in Branch B. The cherry-pick operations should be done in the same chronological order that the commits appear in Branch A.

cherry-pick does support a range of commits, but if you have merge commits in that range, it gets really complicated

git checkout branch-B
git cherry-pick X
git cherry-pick Y

Simple guide for setting up OTG modes on the Raspberry Pi Zero

Raspberry Pi Zero OTG Mode

Simple guide for setting up OTG modes on the Raspberry Pi Zero - By Andrew Mulholland (gbaman).

The Raspberry Pi Zero (and model A and A+) support USB On The Go, given the processor is connected directly to the USB port, unlike on the B, B+ or Pi 2 B, which goes via a USB hub.
Because of this, if setup to, the Pi can act as a USB slave instead, providing virtual serial (a terminal), virtual ethernet, virtual mass storage device (pendrive) or even other virtual devices like HID, MIDI, or act as a virtual webcam!
It is important to note that, although the model A and A+ can support being a USB slave, they are missing the ID pin (is tied to ground internally) so are unable to dynamically switch between USB master/slave mode. As such, they default to USB master mode. There is no easy way to change this right now.
It is also important to note, that a USB to UART serial adapter is not needed for any of these guides, as may be documented elsewhere across the int
