  • Rr

    If you use https://pernos.co/ then you don't need any of this, but I have a set of only slightly buggy gdbinit scripts that extend the rr debugging experience at <https://github.com/hotsphink/sfink-tools>. The main things it adds are:

    1. a `log` command that just records whatever you give it into a plaintext file, together with its "point in time" according to rr. This is useful because when using rr, you tend to move forward and backward in time a lot, and it's hard to keep track of the actual sequence of events and where you are within them. It also creates a checkpoint so you can return to any one of your log points. It also has some niceties like replacing any expression enclosed in curly brackets with the results of executing the gdb expression given, so you can do things like

        log starting execution of Init() with v={v}. About to crash.
  • Zq: An Easier (and Faster) Alternative to Jq
    36 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 26 Apr 2022
    The thing that I find myself wanting, which is lacking in both jq and zq afaik, is interactive exploration. I want to move around in a large JSON file, narrow my context to the portion I'm interested in, and do specialized queries and transformations on just the data I care about.

    I wrote a tool to do this -- https://github.com/hotsphink/sfink-tools/blob/master/bin/jso... -- but I do not recommend it to anyone other than as perhaps a source of inspiration. It's slow and buggy, the syntax is cryptic and just matches whatever I came up with when I had a new need, etc. It probably wouldn't exist if I had heard of jq sooner.

    But for what it does, it's awesome. I can do things like:

      % json somefile.json
