wmiir - The wmii 9P filesystem client
|
|
|
|
= SYNOPSIS =
|
|
|
|
wmiir [-a <address>] [-b] {create | ls [-dlp] | read | remove | write} <file> +
|
|
wmiir [-a <address>] [-b] xwrite <file> <data> ... +
|
|
wmiir -v
|
|
|
|
= DESCRIPTION =
|
|
|
|
`wmiir` is a simple 9P filesystem client which ships with `wmii`, and connects
|
|
to its virtual filesystem by default. `wmiir` is most often used to query and
|
|
issue commands to `wmii`, both from the command line and from its `sh`-based
|
|
configuration scripts.
|
|
|
|
Since the default encoding of 9P filesystems is UTF-8, `wmiir`
|
|
assumes that all data read and written is text data and
|
|
translates to or from your locale character encoding as
|
|
necessary. When working with non-text data in a non-UTF-8
|
|
locale, the _-b_ flag should be specified to disable this
|
|
behavior.
|
|
|
|
= ARGUMENTS =
|
|
|
|
: -a
|
|
The address at which to connect to `wmii`.
|
|
: -b
|
|
With the _-b_ flag, data that you intend to read or
|
|
write is treated as binary data.
|
|
:
|
|
= COMMANDS =
|
|
|
|
The following commands deal with 9P filesystems.
|
|
|
|
: create <file>
|
|
Creates a new file or directory in the filesystem. Permissions and
|
|
file type are inferred by `wmii`. The contents of the standard input
|
|
are written to the new file.
|
|
: ls [-dlp] <path>
|
|
Lists the contents of <path>.
|
|
|
|
Flags:
|
|
>>
|
|
: -d
|
|
Don't list the contents of directories.
|
|
: -l
|
|
Long output. For each file, list its permissions, owner,
|
|
group, size (bytes), mtime, and name.
|
|
: -p
|
|
Print the full path to each file.
|
|
<<
|
|
: read <file>
|
|
Reads the entire contents of a file from the filesystem. Blocks until
|
|
interrupted or EOF is received.
|
|
|
|
Synonyms: `cat`
|
|
: remove <path>
|
|
Removes <path> from the filesystem.
|
|
|
|
Synonyms: `rm`
|
|
: write <file>
|
|
Writes the contents of the standard input to <file>.
|
|
: xwrite <file> <data> ...
|
|
Writes each argument after <file> to the latter.
|
|
:
|
|
|
|
Additionally, wmiir provides the following utility commands relevant
|
|
to scripting wmii:
|
|
|
|
: namespace
|
|
Prints the current wmii namespace directory, usually
|
|
equivalent to /tmp/ns.$USER.${DISPLAY%.0}, but possibly
|
|
different depending on the value of $NAMESPACE and
|
|
$WMII_NAMESPACE.
|
|
|
|
Synonyms: `ns`
|
|
: setsid [-0 <argv0>] [-f] <command>
|
|
Executes the given command after setting the session id (see
|
|
setsid(2)). If _-0_ is given, the command is run with the
|
|
given value as argv[0]. For instance, to run sh as a login
|
|
shell, one might run
|
|
|
|
``` wmiir setsid -0 -sh sh
|
|
If _-f_ is given, wmiir will fork into the background before
|
|
executing the command.
|
|
: proglist [--] <directory> ...
|
|
Lists all executable commands in the given directories.
|
|
|
|
= ENVIRONMENT =
|
|
|
|
: $WMII_ADDRESS
|
|
The address at which to connect to wmii.
|
|
: $NAMESPACE
|
|
The namespace directory to use if no address is
|
|
provided.
