amissing.link
is also available as an onion
service
for those that want/need more privacy. To access the onion service,
use Tor.
Any word with a trailing number enclosed in parentheses, such as
help(1)
, is a link to a
man(1)
page. The number represents
the section number of that man page.
In command line examples, a dollar sign ($)
represents a shell
without root permissions; conversely, an octothorpe (#)
represents
a shell with root permissions. Root can be acquired via
su(1)
or
doas(1)
, though the latter is
preferred.
In command line examples, [...]
is used as a placeholder for actual
values. For instance, usermod -G [group] [user]
means to substitute
the desired group and user at those locations. Other placeholders are
used in a similar fashion when needed, such as /path/to/directory
or example.cue
.
I write amissing.link
in Markdown
with neovim. ssg parses
the Markdown and generates corresponding HTML documents.
rssg generates the RSS feed. Note that my
version of ssg
and rssg
differ from Roman’s, though the changes
mostly come down to stylistic preferences.
To test layout, httpd(8)
runs on
localhost
on my development machine. After I make changes, I run a
simple script named
webtest
to sync my
changes so that I can preview them before committing and pushing to the
server with git.
Once I push to the server,
post-receive
activates (see
githooks(5)
for more info) to
render the Markdown and voilĂ .
