of width settings. This overrides any dynamically detected widths, as well as the globals:
COLS_MAX_CONSOLE='115'
COLS_MAX_IRC='105'
Now that inxi widths are largely dynamic in terminal, with a few lingering exceptions, it made sense
to also allow for overrides of this. This is useful in cases where for example you want to output
inxi to text file or for other purposes, or if you just want to test the widths, as in my case.
-y cannot be used with --recommends, but otherwise it works fine, with --help/-c 94-99 you have to
put -y first in the list of options.
Example: inxi -v7 -y150 > inxi.txt will ignore the terminal settings and output the lines at basically
max length.
Audio -A - now wrap is fully dynamic down to 80 characters, and also the expansion of ALSA
to Advanced Linux Sound System only happens if that fits in the display width.
-N/-n/-i - Most networking/ip address stuff wraps now.
-d - optical drive data wraps better now too.
This more or less completes the line wrap redo.
strings --version used in the debugger results in a hang, which you can duplicate with:
strings
alone, without any argument or info, that will hang too, so I assume if the system doesn't
have the --version parameter, strings ignores that, and basically just does what it would do
with no option, hang.
Thanks for user ypharis persistence in tracking down this issue. So far only appeared on slackware
based distros, but since the debugger should 'just work', removing the version test.
methods:
something <<< $variable is signficantly slower than: echo $variable | something
so I replaced almost all instances of <<< with echo ...|
I've seen speed differences of up to 10% but it's not consistent, so this is just
something to boost performance slightly on older systems I'd guess.
when the supybot
'SHELL' command is used, 'CALL' gives the user irc client data, and
supybot etc are
not detectable.
Fine tuned some error message lengths so they fit into 80 columns or so.
for systems with a lot of them, that will clean up the output.
Added dynamic wrapping to --recommends and -c 94-99.
These are the main things, there's a few smaller issues with -xx output on -N/-n/-i but
those will noly really show with full output and it takes a while to get this stuff stable
so maybe some other time, but it's ok for now.
the bus id itself to determine if the
VGA compatible controller
3D controller
Display Controller
refer to separate chips or the same one.
Bus id gives the data needed, because the video chip, the real card, that is,
is on for example 00:05.0 the trailing .0 is the key, that's the actual card.
The audio or display controller for the same card would be for example: 00:05.1
I don't know if this is fully reliable, but it will have to do, either some cards
as is get missed, or some cards get double id'ed, unless I use a hack like this.
There's nothing else I can find but the bus id to determine that it's the same
physical device or not.
to graphics card detection, that's a new one on me. Dual card systems might use this.
00:02.0 Display controller: Intel Corporation 82865G Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation NV44A [GeForce 6200] (rev a1)
Some more switches to bash native methods as well.
