Created a Utility to Extract Urls
I was exploring my IRC chatlogs and wanted a way to get all urls mentioned in all channels.
So, I created a small command line utility to extract urls from standard input: Check it out here
Usage:
command | python3 urls.py

Make your Mac speak
On macOS you can use the say command to make your computer speak.
This can be used for a number of applications like reading articles or books and creating custom notifications.
Usage:
say "How are you?"
You can also add it to a pipeline:
echo "I'm fine" | say
To can the change the voice with the -v option:
say -v "Albert" "I have a frog in my throat"
Configuration
You can set the default voice in
System Preferences -> Accessibility -> Spoken Content -> System voice
Have fun and let me know what uses you find for this

Lineselect and Vipe
Interesting projects I found today:
lineselect - command line utility to select lines from stdin in the middle of a pipeline
vipe - command line utility to inspect and modify stdin lines in your $EDITOR in the middle of a pipeline
