    In addition to the standard format specifiers, %b causes the command to expand backslash escape sequences (for example \n for newline), and %q outputs an item that can be used as shell input. [3] The format string is reused if there are more items than format specs. Unused format specs provide a zero value or null string.

  4. format (command) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Format_(command)

    With this option, Format writes bootstrap code to the first sector of the volume (and possibly elsewhere as well). Format always writes a BIOS Parameter Block to the first sector, with or without the /S option. Another option (/Q) allows for what Microsoft calls "Quick Format". With this option the command will not perform steps 2 and 3 above.

  5. PRINT (command) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Print_(command)

    The print command allowed specifying one of many possible local printer interfaces, [23] and could make use of networked printers using the net command. [24] A maximum number of files and a maximum buffer size could be specified, and further command-line options allowed adding and removing files from the queue. [23]

    umount /home/you/dir # or, after finding the associated loop number by e.g. mount | grep "/home/you/dir" # or losetup -a | grep example.img umount /dev/loop<N> At a lower level application programming interface , the association and disassociation of a file with a loop device is performed with the ioctl system call on a loop device.

  7. CUPS - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CUPS

    The print data goes to a scheduler [14] which sends jobs to a filter system that converts the print job into a format the printer will understand. [15] The filter system then passes the data on to a backend —a special filter that sends print data to a device or network connection. [ 16 ]

  8. Disk formatting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disk_formatting

    A block, a contiguous number of bytes, is the minimum unit of storage that is read from and written to a disk by a disk driver.The earliest disk drives had fixed block sizes (e.g. the IBM 350 disk storage unit (of the late 1950s) block size was 100 six-bit characters) but starting with the 1301 [8] IBM marketed subsystems that featured variable block sizes: a particular track could have blocks ...

  9. Read–eval–print loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Read–eval–print_loop

    The read–eval–print loop involves the programmer more frequently than the classic edit–compile–run–debug cycle. Because the print function outputs in the same textual format that the read function uses for input, most results are printed in a form that could be copied and pasted back into the REPL. However, it is sometimes necessary ...
