• OpenBSD pledge(2) and Linux seccomp(2) in Python3
  3 projects | /r/learnpython | 14 Aug 2021

  I am working on putting the finishing touches on my program, gal. The most important part of finishing up this program is the implementation of operating system security syscalls. I have some familiarity with OpenBSD's pledge(2) and unveil(2), but am running into issues with what modules to use. This may be a long post, and perhaps a little out all over the place, but I will try to keep things brief.

• How Do You Know Where to Use An Object Vs. Variable Grouping?
  2 projects | /r/learnpython | 13 Aug 2021

  Aahhh, that clears a lot up. Well in that case I will stick maybe using a namedtouple in my program for grouping variables for now. If I may bug you one last time, this is my first python3 program and I have been looking for someone to look over it, my Makefile and my documentation so I can be made aware of where I can improve and any bad habits I should break. If you have a moment could you look over my program?

• subprocess coomplains about argument list being to long
  1 project | /r/learnpython | 11 Jul 2021

  I have pretty much written the entirety of my very first python3 program! It is nothing too crazy, just a python3 port of the shell script I use to launch programs. The issue I am having is that my python3 edition of this script keeps complaining about the arguments list in my subprocess call call being too long. I did some debugging and this is due to list_of_programs, but in my shell script edition I never had this issue so I have to imagine that this is an issue with subprocess not the actual shell. I initially though this was due to list_of_programs not being seen as a string so I tried str(list_of_porgrams), but got the same issue. Could someone expand on why I am getting this error?

• How to Pass Command-line Arguments to a Program Being Pulled from an Environment Variable?
  3 projects | /r/bash | 21 May 2021

  I was able to figure out removing $0, the program name, and have set -x but have one bug I can not figure out removing. For some reason my script never passes the contents of find_programs_in_path to prompt_for_input. I have tried debugging the issue, but no dice. I am guessing it is going to be something obvious, but can't seem to find it, could you take one quick look? https://gitlab.com/FOSSilized_Daemon/gal/-/blob/master/src/gal

• [POSIX] Unsure How to Design a Handler Function
  2 projects | /r/bash | 9 Mar 2021

  I am currently going through the process of cleaning all of my old scripts and ran into an issue I can't seem to figure out how to resolve. In all of my POSIX shell scripts that are used within graphical environments I have a function called prompt_for_input, what this function does is it basically takes an environment variables called PROMPT_MENU and uses that with whatever is passed as the first argument to the function to create, well, a prompt menu. To clear up any confusion here is an example. You could set either of the following lines within your .profile:

• dmenu patch for running programs in terminal
  2 projects | /r/suckless | 22 Dec 2020

  Neat, I'll have to add that functionality to my dmenu script.
