Erik's Junk Code

This repository contains pieces of code that I have written to, e.g., learn
something or try something out. They may be useful as examples.

I do not document the individual examples in the README file, but rather
use comments inside the example files themselves.

Since I use the GNU operating system, I usually test with GNU tools, e.g.,
GNU bash, GNU Awk, and GNU sed. The examples may not work with non-GNU
implementations.

My "single file tools" (https://github.com/auerswal/sft) repository is
for ready-to-use tools that I intend to use regularly, while this junkcode
repository is for examples or one-off solutions.

This collection of junk code is inspired by Andrew "Tridge" Tridgell's
junk code:
