This is the first daily post made by cronjob using a little script I put together. It worked!
It was too difficult to figure out how to get it to say "31st" instead of "31", for example, but other than that it's cool. We still have that counter, plus I'm also able to mention the day of the week in the body, as well as the title. It's the little things, right?
Great shave. You & I (Will Die) is a horrible name for a soap, but it's a great scent.
Something like this would probably work (untested):
Another way scripting in bash kinda sucks: you canβt call off to nice easy to use libraries that make this sort of thing trivial :)
I found maybe that exact same thing but not as refined as yours and sort of gave up on it. I had to focus on making everything else work first haha.
This sort of makes sense to me, though. I'll try to incorporate it.
Update - tested and working. Thanks!
Sweet!
