A collection of useful scripts which I use myself for my daily work. More details to come....
runs a given command whenever a file changes.
- Argument 1: filename to be whatched
- Argument 2: command to be executed
See skript "md-chapters" which benefits from whatchme
The script was needed to generate the chapter numbers while using markdown documents for pandoc to create PDFs. I wanted a chapter / section numbering which should be added automatically just before compiling to PDF.
Example using the combination with whatchme - which I use with an open terminal to have a quick overview of the structure of the markdown document I am working on:
whatchme.sh file.md 'md-chapters.sh file.md'- Argument 1: filename to be whatched
- Argument 2: (optional) = "show|complete"
Parses a file and returns a chapter numbering in respect to the count of "#" which indicates a section in Markdown.
option = show, shows the "#"
option = complete, shows first the original chapter titel and then the one with added numbering (for easy string replacement)
