Provides Utilities for Unix-like systems.
| Command | Help |
|---|---|
| call | Unix call <command to call with any arguments> Calls any command available on the system, and returns its output. Requires owner capability. Note that being restricted to owner, this command does not do any sanity checking on input/output. So it is up to you to make sure you don't run anything that will spamify your channel or that will bring your machine to its knees. |
| crypt | Unix crypt <password> [<salt>] Returns the resulting of doing a crypt() on <password>. If <salt> is not given, uses a random salt. If running on a glibc2 system, prepending '$1$' to your salt will cause crypt to return an MD5sum based crypt rather than the standard DES based crypt. |
| errno | Unix errno <error number or code> Returns the number of an errno code, or the errno code of a number. |
| fortune | Unix fortune takes no arguments Returns a fortune from the Unix fortune program. |
| pid | Unix pid takes no arguments Returns the current pid of the process for this Supybot. |
| ping | Unix ping [--c <count>] [--i <interval>] [--t <ttl>] [--W <timeout>] [--4|--6] <host or ip> Sends an ICMP echo request to the specified host. The arguments correspond with those listed in ping(8). --c is limited to 10 packets or less (default is 5). --i is limited to 5 or less. --W is limited to 10 or less. --4 and --6 can be used if and only if the system has a unified ping command. |
| ping6 | Unix ping6 [--c <count>] [--i <interval>] [--t <ttl>] [--W <timeout>] [--4|--6] <host or ip> Sends an ICMP echo request to the specified host. The arguments correspond with those listed in ping(8). --c is limited to 10 packets or less (default is 5). --i is limited to 5 or less. --W is limited to 10 or less. --4 and --6 can be used if and only if the system has a unified ping command. |
| progstats | Unix progstats takes no arguments Returns various unix-y information on the running supybot process. |
| shell | Unix shell <command to call with any arguments> Calls any command available on the system using the shell specified by the SHELL environment variable, and returns its output. Requires owner capability. Note that being restricted to owner, this command does not do any sanity checking on input/output. So it is up to you to make sure you don't run anything that will spamify your channel or that will bring your machine to its knees. |
| spell | Unix spell <word> Returns the result of passing <word> to aspell/ispell. The results shown are sorted from best to worst in terms of being a likely match for the spelling of <word>. |
| sysuname | Unix sysuname takes no arguments Returns the uname -a from the system the bot is running on. |
| sysuptime | Unix sysuptime takes no arguments Returns the uptime from the system the bot is running on. |
| wtf | Unix wtf [is] <something> Returns wtf <something> is. 'wtf' is a Unix command that first appeared in NetBSD 1.5. In most Unices, it's available in some sort of 'bsdgames' package. |
