  • Russ Cox: Go Testing by Example
    8 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 5 Dec 2023
    chezmoi (<https://chezmoi.io> or <https://github.com/twpayne/chezmoi>) has a couple dozen txtar tests. They are both amazing and completely frustrating to use, but I don't think that there would be a better way to test most of what chezmoi does without them.

    Tom Payne (the creator and primary developer of chezmoi) has added some extra commands to the txtar context which makes things easier for certain classes of testing.

  • Yabai – A tiling window manager for macOS

    You can configure Hammerspoon so a hot key combination puts a window in a defined section of the screen. For example, I use Ctrl+Alt+H to put the current window in the left half of the screen, Ctrl+Alt+L for the right half, Ctrl+Alt+Enter for full screen, etc. This makes arranging your windows very fast.

    Full config: https://github.com/twpayne/dotfiles/blob/21d0edcebaeebf0d90e...
