Re: A script proclaiming Arch's superiority

This one should also be added ...

public class ArchlinuxIsTheBest {
    public static void main(String args[]) {
        System.out.println("\nArch is the best!!\n");
    }
}

Run it ..
javac ArchlinuxIsTheBest.java
java ArchlinuxIsTheBest

It works on windows, mac, linux, bsd, solaris .... big_smile (portable, WORA code) tongue

Re: A script proclaiming Arch's superiority

Now, that the simple script that started all has grown, it seems obvious, that a full fledged multi-media application is necessary to do the job. The beginning was purely KISS, but now, for external representation i think that Arch needs more of a "KISS MY ASS" style. Therefore the application have to make use of sound hardware, that has become widely adopted in desktop computers. But instead of using something from the Arch Theme Song Collection, I propose to use something that clearly states: THE BEST, THE BEST, THE BEST, THE BEST

Re: A script proclaiming Arch's superiority

For kernel mode, add to init/main.c (in your kernel source directory) the following:

printk ("Arch is the best");

Patch submitted to Linus. Awaiting Mr. Torvalds response. smile

Re: A script proclaiming Arch's superiority

Linus said it must be thoroughly tested (so everyone, pick a copy of Arch and do it)... and maybe it will be merged upstream in the 3.0.x or 3.2.x version of the kernel. ;-)

Re: A script proclaiming Arch's superiority

A loadable Kernel module for "Arch is the Best!".

aitb.c

/* aitb.c - "Arch Is The Best!" kernel module
 */
#include <linux/module.h> 
#include <linux/kernel.h>


int init_module(void)
{
   printk("Arch is the Best!\n");
    
   return 0;
}


void cleanup_module(void)
{
  printk(KERN_ALERT "Removing aitb module...\n");
  printk(KERN_ALERT "Arch is still the Best!\n");
}

Makefile

obj-m += aitb.o

all:
    make -C /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build M=`pwd` modules

clean:
    make -C /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build M=`pwd` clean

Just enter to the directory where aitb.c is located an run the command:

make -C /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build M=`pwd` modules

Re: A script proclaiming Arch's superiority

Due to the enormous popularity of this functionality, here's the HDL so it can one day be hardware accelerated.

use std.textio.all;

entity the_best is
end the_best;

architecture arch_is of the_best is
begin
       p : proclamation
       variable l:line;
       begin
               write(l, String'("Arch is the best!"));
               writeline(output, l);
               wait;
       end proclamation;
end arch_is;

Re: A script proclaiming Arch's superiority

I'm surprised nobody has done this in the D programming language yet.  Nah, not really.  That was sarcasm.

Phobos library:

import std.stdio;                                                                           

void main()
{                                                                                           
    writefln("Arch is the best!");
}

Tango library:

import tango.io.Stdout;

void main()                                                                                 
{                                                                                           
    Stdout("Arch is the best!").newline;
}

Re: A script proclaiming Arch's superiority

Erlang:

-module(arch).
-export([arch_is_the_best/0]).

arch_is_the_best() -> io:fwrite("Arch is the best!\n").

Usage:

$ erl
1> c(arch).
{ok,arch}
2> arch:arch_is_the_best().
Arch is the best!
ok
