Backuppc VS gore

This is a bug in smbclient that leads to corrupted archives being created. There's a Github issue about it. Newer versions of smbclient have a fix. I posted a workaround with a wrapper in the issue if upgrading smbclient is not possible. You could try it out: https://github.com/backuppc/backuppc/issues/404

Go to the Code tab. Click on the green "Code" button. Download as Zip. Or, if you have git installed, consider using git pull https://github.com/backuppc/backuppc instead.

Kind of, though the whole Raku thing made everything a tad wonky.

Some of the nicer Perl software that I use currently is BackupPPC, which has been pretty solid despite the slightly subpar UI: https://github.com/backuppc/backuppc

And another interesting piece that I can think of was RemoteBox, which was pretty niche but still worked nicely: https://remotebox.knobgoblin.org.uk/?page=about

From the more popular packages, one should also mention exiftool, which was written in Perl: https://github.com/exiftool/exiftool

Probably also a lot of other pieces of software, though it doesn't seem like there's much of a large/active community around Perl, for example, have a look at: https://github.com/trending/perl?since=monthly and then compare it to something like: https://github.com/trending/go?since=monthly

There are also Go interpreters with REPLs like https://github.com/x-motemen/gore

There are a few REPLs, but people don't use them much. I usually have an empty main.go file laying around where I put a snippet, then run it.

I only know of this one and an article on it. https://github.com/x-motemen/gore , http://diego-pacheco.blogspot.com/2018/07/writing-simple-repl-in-go.html

Most people use the playground as a sort of a poor man's REPL. I don't find it useful for that due to the reasons I pointed above (feedback latency). You don't have to use an IDE, there are many other tools available that fill that role outside the IDE like https://github.com/x-motemen/gore that I have also used in the past.

The only actual Go REPL I know is gore, https://github.com/x-motemen/gore, which, on all the machines I've tried, is brutally slow.

That's the one I'm aware of https://github.com/motemen/gore
