Create a tar file in multiple parts if it's to large for a single disk, your filesystem, etc.
Rejoin later with `cat .tar.*|tar xf -`
In this example, where the users gpg keyring has a password, the user will be interactively prompted for the keyring password.
If the keyring has no password, same as above, sans the prompt. Suitable for cron jobs.
~/.gnupg/passwd/http-auth.gpg is the encrypted http auth password, for this particular wget use case.
This approach has many use cases.
example bash functions:
function http_auth_pass() { gpg2 --decrypt ~/.gnupg/passwd/http-auth.gpg 2>/dev/null; }
function decrypt_pass() { gpg2 --decrypt ~/.gnupg/passwd/"$1" 2>/dev/null; }
You must have PHP 5.4.0 or later to be able to run the built in server.
This web server is designed for developmental purposes only, and should not be used in production.
URI requests are served from the current working directory where PHP was started, unless the -t option is used to specify an explicit document root. If a URI request does not specify a file, then either index.php or index.html in the given directory are returned. If neither file exists, then a 404 response code is returned.
If a PHP file is given on the command line when the web server is started it is treated as a "router" script. The script is run at the start of each HTTP request. If this script returns FALSE, then the requested resource is returned as-is. Otherwise the script's output is returned to the browser.
Standard MIME types are returned for files with extensions: .css, .gif, .htm, .html, .jpe, .jpeg, .jpg, .js, .png, .svg, and .txt. The .htm and .svg extensions are recognized from PHP 5.4.4 onwards.

Uses the pv utility to show progress of data transfer and an ETA until completion.
You can install pv via Homebrew on macOS
swap out "80" for your port of interest. Can use port number or named ports e.g. "http"
If you run this command on a VMWare Virtual Machine, it will return the string "VMware Virtual Platform". If you run it on a physical machine, it will return nothing. Useful for having a script determine if it's running on a VM or not. Of course, you must have dmidecode installed for this to work.
Try it this way in a script: ISVM=$(dmidecode | awk '/VMware Virtual Platform/ {print $3,$4,$5}')
Then test if $ISVM has text in it, or is blank.
I wanted to view only executables installed by a package. This seemed to work.
There's got to be easier way, please share.
Note:
(1) Replace iptables with the package name of your interest
(2) The command will trash any existing environment variable named 'lst'
(3) Instead if you are interested in viewing just .ko or .so files installed by this package, then
that would be easy:
$ dpkg -L iptables | grep "\.[sk]o$"
