 sfmt
======

 $ sed ':c;$b;/^[ \t]*$/b;/^.\{,69\}$/{h;s///;N;/^\n[ \t]*$/{;H;g;s/\n\n*/\n/;bt;};s/^\n[ \t]*//;s/[ \t][ \t]*$//;H;g;s/\n\n*/ /g;s/[ \t][ \t]*$//;bc;};:t;/^.\{,70\}$/!{s/^\(.\{1,70\}\)\([ \t][ \t]*\)\(.*\)$/\1\n\3/;s/[ \t]*$//;P;D;}'

 Explanation: A simplified fmt(1) that wraps lines to 70 spaces and handles
              paragraphs
 Comment: yes, it's longer than 128 bytes, but I am sure there exists at 
          least one screen where it fits in exactly one line....

 Youtube Browser in ELinks
===========================

 $ ytb (){ [ "${1##*[!0-9]*}" ] && $YTBD --playlist-end $1 "$2"|$YTBE|$YTBS
   || $YTBD "$1"|$YTBE|$YTBS;elinks $YTBF;rm -f $YTBF; }

 Usage: ytb [MAX RESULTS] URL

 Comment: In ELinks: "<" ">" to change tabs/results, "W" to wrap text.
   Enable option "document.plain.display_links" in ELinks config. for
   download/viewable video/image URLs. "less" could be used instead of 
   ELinks, with navigation between results using the ":n" and ":p"  
   commands. Some X terminal programs can detect URLs by themselves.

 Gophernicus trick
===================

 $ sed '2i # \x00' script.sh > script

 Explanation: Inserts a null byte at the second line to trick 
   Gophernicus into thinking it's a binary file. This still won't work if
   a text extension is used such as ".sh" or ".txt".

 Phlog Index Gophermap
=======================

 $ cp phloghead gophermap; for i in `ls -r *.txt`; do echo -e "0$i\t"; \
   done >> gophermap

 Explanation: Make a gophermap index for a series of phlogs

 Comment: Only works if you begin all of your phlog post filenames with a 
   Y-M-D formatted date, like me. 

 Example:
   $ echo "Welcome to the phlogging a dead horse phlog" > phloghead
   $ echo "First post - not much to say so far..." > 2020-10-23First_Post.txt 
   $ cp phloghead gophermap; for i in `ls -r *.txt`; do echo -e "0$i\t"; \
     done >> gophermap

 monitoring suite
==================

 $ while read line; do $line >/dev/null 2>&1 || logger -cs -p local0.alert -t monitor "$line" & done </etc/monitor.conf; wait

 Explanation: It is a monitoring suite, that reads configuration in 
              this form (which can be generated or edited manually)

 Veronica search
=================

 $ veronica() {echo "/v2/vs?sq=$(echo "$*"|tr ' ' '+')" |nc gopher.floodgap.com 70|grep "^igoph"|cut -f1|sed "s/^i//"}

 Explanation: Simply type 'veronica <search query>' and get returned up
              to 30 matches from Veronica 2 to satisfy your Gopher 
              search itch!
