zsh bracketed paste (don’t run command in terminal when pasting)

Stop terminal auto executing when pasting a command - Ask Ubuntu:

  • If you copy a newline symbol at the end of whatever you are copying, it gets executed as expected
  • bracketed paste (enabled by default on zsh) disables this behaviour

Had unset zle_bracketed_paste in zsh config, likely needed for athame that I don’t use. Removed it, works now.

To enable in bash,

echo "set enable-bracketed-paste" >> .inputrc

I should make an eventual list of dotfiles I use for all remote servers, this will go there 100%.

kitty hint for IPs + python non-capturing (unnamed?) groups

Added these to kitty config! One for IPs, second IPs+ports:

map kitty_mod+n>i kitten hints --type regex --regex [0-9]+(?:\.[0-9]+){3} --program @
map kitty_mod+n>p kitten hints --type regex --regex [0-9]+(?:\.[0-9]+){3}:[0-9]+ --program @

Glad I can still read and understand regexes. The above highlight more than needed, but seems to be kitty’s problem.

In python, a group without ?: is a non-capturing group in python (= not returned in .groups()). In kitty (that uses python syntax), only what’s inside the first capturing group is copied; making it non-capturing makes it copy the entire regex. 1

I added another kitty hint to copy CLI commands currently being typed:

# CLI Commands
map kitty_mod+n>c kitten hints --type regex --regex "\$(.+)\s*$" --program @

My regex is trivial, the capturing group gets the command without the leading $ and avoids all trailing whitespaces.

Docker run detached mode

The magic -dp 8000:8000 command I’ve been using is actually -d -p, with -p being what I want and -d turning on detached mode. Without it, I see the logs directly and can easily <Ctrl-c> it away.

Also, docker ps shows ports as part of the output.

Setting timezone

Let this be the final one, with all configs correct now:

timedatectl set-timezone Europe/XXX

In the Buddhist interpretation of it, “BE WHERE YOU ARE”.
