Oct

Originally "Octology" (my ontology of 8), upd8d and renamed to just Oct. $VERSION='0.000001';$d8VS='O44M8888';

Much of Oct can be seen quickly in my 6-minute Lightning-Talk which I presented for the-Perl-Conference-in-the-Cloud on June 24th, 2020 (d8=K6O)

This repo was started in 2024 (d8=O44) to carry on from Octology (shortened) after a pretty lengthy hI8us of not being able to upd8 GitHub.

If your paths and Perl environment are setup similarly, to gain a bearing on fundamental Oct utilities and organiz8ion, please try executing:

  • ftst - run the gamut of Perl File TeSTs on the default .Hrc file
  • tsgr - Test Select Graphic Rendition additional text attributes
  • sumb - SUMmarize most ~/bin/ executaBle files rather colorfully
  • pal8 - set first 16-color PALette ("8") for terminal or console

Probably the best way to evalU8 Oct is to build and run a Docker container specified by the following commands, which facilit8 testing:

docker build . -t oct # to be run in the root directory of a git cloned local repository from this project's main oper8ional hyperlink;

docker run -e DISPLAY --mount type=bind,source=/home/pip/.log,target=/home/tst/.log -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix -it oct #muchworks

To build something close to a similar setup to mine, you'll probably want to execute the following sequences of commands to get going first:

git clone https://GitHub.Com/Pip/Oct # which should crE8 the Oct/ sub-directory in your Current-Working-Directory (or:pwd),

cd Oct; cp -a lib bin dox .Hrc .Xrc .bashrc .lrc .lsrc .shl.style .vim .vimrc .zshrc ~; chsh $(which zsh); cd ~; zsh

and you'll want to: cpanm ... or pmei Time::DaysInMonth since I (through Oct) depend on that module, but am not maintainer of it;

Also the Color::Similarity::RGB module is employed in pm2x to gener8 an expanded pal8 map from the rel8ive proximity of nearby colors;

Public Purpose

If I ever become unable to continue developing this project further, my hope is that at least this repository provides others the ability to utilize any of my beneficial work and ideas (hopefully to further FreeLibreSoftware with deriv8ives also seeing release under the GPLv3+).
