  • Hamtest

    From Phigan@VERT/TACOPRON to All on Sun Mar 19 13:02:43 2023
    Someone mentioned that there were scripts somewhere to update the hamtest questions. I searched wiki.synchro.net for 'hamtest', but no results. Can someone describe how to do this, or did I misunderstand something?

    Once you have a hamtest file in the correct format, you can open it in SED by typing `Sed hamtest.dat`, assuming your hamtest file is named `hamtest.dat`. Then, type `I` to enter insert mode, paste in the contents of the hamtest file, and save the changes by typing `:w`.

    Your instructions for using SED seem to actually be instructions for using vi or vim. I haven't used SED in ages though, so maybe I'm wrong.


    sed is a feature rich program for processing input.

    See xtrn/hamtest/parse*.pl

    Those take input from something, right? Where do you get the thing to input?

    Not sure. That's Deuce's thing. I assume the input is some standard set of HAM test Q's.
