<old>I for one only care about Linux OS

<old>so I expect /dev/null to be there

<rlb>...iirc /dev/null is required by posix, so it's a reasonably broad (unixish) expectation. Oh, perhaps: https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/000095399/basedefs/xbd_chap10.html

<dsmith>Windows/DOS used to have a NUL pseudo device that did pretty much the same. Except it was *EVERYWHERE*.

<rlb>:)

<cow_2001>i have a gripe. if (ice-9 getopt-long)'s `(option-ref some-options '() #f)` is provided with `some-options` that does not hold non-flaggy options, it does not return the default #f. it returns '(). for any other key one provides to `option-ref`, the result would have been #f

<cow_2001>for example: (option-ref (getopt-long '("a" "--bar") '((bar))) '() #f)

<dsmith>!uptime

<sneek>I've been aware for 23 minutes and 41 seconds

<sneek>This system has been up 24 minutes

<dsmith>Lost power earlier..

<mwette>cow_2001: Can you replace with (srfi srfi-37)? It's more popular.
