scripts-misc

Miscellaneous scripts accumulated over the years, not as central as the ones in http://github.com/johnkerl/scripts.

Windows workalikes for familiar Unix tools, from back in my NT days:

• grep.pl
• head.pl
• tail.pl
• uniq.pl
• wc.pl,
• whereis.pl,
• My_win_glob.pm,
• w.pl,
• notes about Perl and Windows file associations: perl-on-windows-notes.txt,
• toc.pl which works around the Windows association/redirection bug.

fixrlinks.pl: When I rsync -rtlz between hosts on which the spelling of my home directory differs (e.g. /u5/kerl on one and /home/kerl on the other), rsync doesn't change the symlink referents. This script can be run after an rsync to fix that.

finddang.pl: Reports on dangling symlinks.

Substitute for makeindex which correctly handles alphabetization of text including \mathbb etc. in LaTeX files:

• kmkidx [kmkidx].
