The property can be an arbitrary command. - -> The code is at <http://github.com/scolobb/filterfs/tree/master>. - -####1: Mon Apr 28 - Wed Apr 30: - -> Wrote a Python extension module in C for retreiving the uptime. The module is based on the code of *w*. - -####0: Sun Apr 27: - -> Followed the code of *dmesgd* (<http://www.bddebian.com/junk/dmesgd/>) kindly offered by **bddebian** and rewrote it from scratch as a tutorial. - |
