Journal thinkninja's Journal: day 13 without internet
Originallu written Thursday June 04
off sick today. uptime is 3 days, 21h. cold and head aches. crafty seems better than gnuchess but is unable to mate in an end game. playing another match now (`xboard -fcp crafty -mg 10 -size medium -thinking -xreuse -tc 10 -inc 0`). i installed xp on an old 60gb, 5400rpm drive so i could play splinter cell. supposed to be getting "pandora tomorrow" today. also
now crafty has a +5 pawn advantage. according to the faq v9.21, crafty has a Louget rating (comparable to a FIDE rating, apparently) of 2395 on a pentium pro 200 with a 56MB hash table. god only know what that works out to on a barton 2500+. no wonder i can't beat it! then again i do suck pretty bad.
i've almost 'finalized' my screen hardstatus now.
source
.screenrc
backtick 1 5 60/home/ninja/bin/hardstatus
backtick 2 10 10 cat/tmp/hardstatcon
backtick 3 10 10/home/ninja/bin/gethstattorrents
hardstatus alwayslastline "%{= wk}%1=%c:%s %{= KW} %11=%{+b}%2`%{-b} %20=%3` %39=%H:%? %1` %82=%l%?"
which gives black time ("%H:%M%:%S") on light grey background, then white text on dark grey background (from left-to-right): ics.sans.org status from green to red (represented as "i, i+, i++, i*, or i?"); dhs threatcon status (same as ics but with "t"; base level is 'elevated' [yellow?]); backtick 3 rotates between each torrent that's running on the screen session called 'torrents' status, the date ("%b %d %Y"), and days remaining until DSL is available on the local exchange ("54 days remain"
the only thing that i plan on adding is rotating load averages with data off the wire. [now done]
in total, that's 97 lines of shell script to prettify my hardstatus. feh
