• Some Talisman Linux scripts I've written

    |09Hi All,

    I have written a few Linux scripts for my Talisman BBS that I thought I
    would share.

    They're available at:

    |15https://github.com/spiroharvey/talisman-bbs-scripts|09

    They're the shell scripts I've written for managing my FTN stuff as well
    as systemd service files.

    |14bbs.service|09 for starting and stopping the main BBS

    |14binkd.service|09 for binkd

    |14bbs-filewatch.service|09 for monitoring for incoming tic files and
    triggers my tic processor (I use one I wrote years ago called stick,
    available on my github as well at
    |15https://github.com/spiroharvey/stick|09)

    |14bbs-semwatch.service|09 to monitor the netmail and echomail semaphore
    files and trigger Talisman's postie scan

    The main reason for the last two is that I haven't currently had much
    success with the in-built Talisman events. Hopefully when it improves
    then I will not need these scripts, but they might still be useful if you
    want to know how to use this functionality for something else.

    Those scripts use a package called inotify-tools that can be made to
    watch files for modifications (as in sem-watch) or directories for new
    files (as in file_watch).
