Useful Un*x / BSD / macOS utilities

Useful Un*x / macOS utilities

A store of useful utilities that run under a Un*x like OS ie Linux / macOS / BSD. There will be some macOS specific ones as I find time to clean them up and add to the repository.

These are some tools I use on a daily basis, some within cron scrips or setup with automation tools Like Rundeck.

To use effectively, place the bin/ directory in your path. Most of the utilities will display debugging information by prepending the following the to command line: env DEBUG=1 command [options]
