1) "duplicate" implies that you can only specify two outputs, "multiply" is a better word describing the functionality. 2) fix other wording in the manpage 3) fix usage() 4) reorder local variables 5) fix sizeof() style 6) we need argv later, don't increment argv and rather iterate over argc. 7) Improve error messages, print the filename which the write failed to instead of printing the buffer itself (how much sense does that make, printing 1024 Bytes of garbage?). Also, give the name of the function which failed.

sbase - suckless unix tools
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
sbase is a collection of unix tools that are inherently portable
|
|
across UNIX and UNIX-like systems.
|
|
|
|
The following tools are implemented ('*' == finished, '#' == UTF-8 support,
|
|
'=' == implicit UTF-8 support, '|' == audited):

The complement of sbase is ubase[1] which is Linux-specific and
|
|
provides all the non-portable tools. Together they are intended to
|
|
form a base system similar to busybox but much smaller and suckless.
|
|
|
|
Building
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
To build sbase, simply type make. You may have to fiddle with
|
|
config.mk depending on your system.
|
|
|
|
You can also build sbase-box, which generates a single binary
|
|
containing all the required tools. You can then symlink the
|
|
individual tools to sbase-box or run: make sbase-box-install
|
|
|
|
Ideally you will want to statically link sbase. If you are on Linux
|
|
we recommend using musl-libc[2].
|
|
|
|
Portability
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
sbase has been compiled on a variety of different operating systems,
|
|
including Linux, *BSD, OSX, Haiku, Solaris, SCO OpenServer and others.
|
|
|
|
Various combinations of operating systems and architectures have also
|
|
been built.
|
|
|
|
You can build sbase with gcc, clang, tcc, nwcc and pcc.
