I would appreciate a list of requirements. Does it only work on mac? What kind of terminals can be used?
The repo is https://github.com/wtfutil/wtf/. I'd guess at it supporting macOS (brew installation) and Linux (commit messages).

#12Nice. I might have to try use it.
I use tmux (wrapped in byobu) a lot and tend to end up with one screen (on each host I usual a fair amount) as a dashboard like this, manually constructed from many panes each running a tool like iftop, watching a log with "tail -f", or regularly running other checks via "watch", ...

I cannot get it to compile in linux. I would like to know if it is supposed to, before digging any further.

#16This looks pretty nice but without secret management it's not really that useful. Without that you can't share your configs or have your config in your dotfiles-repository.
That makes it really not that portable.

#17Obviously written by someone who is not living on BSD, and doesn't know about wtf(1) :(
Good thing the binary is called wtfutil because of this very reason.

not what I was getting at. I'm aware it's wtfutil on the cmdline. I was rather sort of amused that, say, I write a 'least squares' utility, call it 'ls' and have it be invoked by calling 'lsutil'.

#20Why have programmers (with jobs, usually) become the modern-day mendicants, begging pizzas and beer off of passers by? Or maybe they're like buskers, peddling their amateur/down-home status? What is the "donations" thing about? Doesn't it make people (with jobs) feel ashamed? Can you really say you're in open source, if you've got your little cardboard sign and upside down hat on all your projects?
