WIKI

Welcome to the KISS WIKI. Documentation and information about KISS and Linux in general. Written by the Community.

Usage

The wiki article index was designed for viewing in a terminal or your preferred markdown viewer. For example, one could use ‘curl’ to download any one of the articles below and pipe the resulting output into a terminal pager application:

curl https://mcpcpc.github.io/k1ss/wiki/boot/efistub.md | less

To simplify the command above, one could create a shell script function and place it in their shell rc file (e.g. ~/.ashrc). For example:

# added to one's ~/.ashrc file
wiki() {
    url='https://mcpcpc.github.io/k1ss/wiki'
    curl "$url/${1:-kiss/style-guide}.md" | less
}

To use this example script and view the example article from above, one would simply type the following in a shell:

$ wiki boot/efistub

Contribute

To add a new article or modify an existing one, create a new Pull Request in the community repository: https://mcpcpc.github.io/kiss-community/website

Each new article will be reviewed by the KISS wiki index owner for compliance with the following style requirements:

• Syntax is pandoc markdown (strict). See https://pandoc.org/MANUAL.html#pandocs-markdown for more information.
• Character width does not exceed 80. Exceptions may be made for strings where a CR-LF cannot be reasonably placed or would impact readability (e.g. long URLs).
• All date and time related strings formatted per ISO 8601 (e.g. YYYY-MM-DD).
