lprefix

A small tool to prefix lines in a script.


While using xargs, I found it hard to use sed to prepend something to lines in the output because of its regex interpretation. That's why I hacked this together.

Install

Checkout this project, then invoke shell cargo install --path .

Example

Example of how I use it: shell forall () { local P=${P:-1} local ARG="cd {} ; pwd ; $@" find . -type d -depth 1 -maxdepth 1 | xargs -n 1 -P ${P} -I {} bash -c "$ARG | lprefix '{}'" }
