## List:

* test_ssl3: Test if a website supportes the SSLV3 protocol.
* veille.sh: Kill every sensitive process and files then lock the screen.
* vimmanpager: Tiny script can be used as PAGER, it will call VIM!

* wol: Send WakeOnLan/magic packets to remote host.
* zenity_generator: Script to generate zenity window.
* zfSnap.sh: Take snapshot of a ZFS pool.

### Apt-fast
Speed-up APT packages downloading with 'axel' (light command line download accelerator). Juste use it like aptitude/apt/apt-get.
```sh
sudo apt-fast full-upgrade
```

### Bash_quote
Get a random quote from http://danstonchat.com with 'lynx'.

### Firewall
A shell script to apply some Iptables rules.
  * Rules are automatically apply only for the UP interfaces.
  * If it's detect some softwares (eg. Apache2), Iptables rules for ports 80/443 are automatically apply.
  * Special rules allow all traffic throught a VPN:
```sh
firewall vpn
```
  * If a local file exists (firewall.local) it will also apply it. For personnal rules for example.

### Flac_to_mp3
Convert FLAC audio files to MP3 with 'avconv'.

  * Convert a directory:
```sh
flac_to_mp3 /media/data/bisounours_land_v2
```
  * Convert a file:
```sh
flac_to_mp3 /media/data/makarena.flac
```

### Num_circle
Tiny Bash script that take a number between 0 and 20 as argument and transform it into a digit with into a circle.
```sh
num_circle 18
⑱
```

### Pomodoro
My implementation of the Pomodoro Technique (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pomodoro_Technique).

You can simply launch it with:
```sh
pomodoro "Work my french kiss"
```

Then the script will:
* Create a ~/.pomodoro directory to store current task (current.task) and a summary of each week (eg week-42-2015.txt).
* First, it's put task name and a timer (for $WORK_TIME) to the current task file.
* Once the $WORK_TIME has been reached:
  1. Log task name and worked time to the weekly log file
  2. Toggle the sound to mark a pause
  3. It's put a pause/break message for 5/20 minutes as current task
  4. Delete the current task file

#### Disavantages
* Must run the script every ~30 minutes
* …?

#### Advantages
* I can display my current task and it's timer wherever i want (tmux, herbstluftwm, …)
* Written to work with /bin/sh

## Test_ssl3
Redhat's script to test if an LDAP server support SSLv3.

You could also use a nmap command:
```sh
nmap --script ssl-enum-ciphers -p 443 ldap.tld.org | grep "SSLv3: No supported ciphers found"
```

## Weblink
Python program that run a small webserver (BaseHTTPServer) to easily share some files.
  * eg:
```sh
weblink /tmp/goodbye.file
HTTP server running at http://localhost:8888/
^C^C received, shutting down server
```
  * With a password:
```sh
weblink --pass=die /tmp/kitty.file
HTTP server running at http://localhost:8888/die
```
