The pledge.com command now supports the new [WIP] unveil() support. For
example, to strongly sandbox our command for listing directories.
o//tool/build/assimilate.com o//examples/ls.com
pledge.com -v /etc -p 'stdio rpath' o//examples/ls.com /etc
This file system sandboxing is going to be perfect for us, because APE
binaries are self-contained static executables that really don't use the
filesystem that much. On the other hand, with non-static executables,
sandboxing is going to be more difficult. For example, here's how to
sandbox the `ls` command on the latest Alpine:
pledge.com -v rx:/lib -v /usr/lib -v /etc -p 'stdio rpath exec' ls /etc
This change fixes the `execpromises` API with pledge().
This change also adds unix.unveil() to redbean.
Fixes#494
It's now possible with any redbean (including redbean-original) to
launch the system web browser without having to use the Lua API. For
example, you can create an args file:
echo -I/ >.args
zip redbean-original.com .args
That will white-label redbean so it launches a specific page when you
double-click on the executable.

When `printimage` is invoked without `-w` or `-h`, we now preserve the
aspect ratio of each input image when scaling it to fit in the window.
A new flag `-i` ignores the aspect ratio, recovering the old behavior
when neither `-w` nor `-h` is passed. When `-i` is passed alongside
exactly one of `-w` or `-h`, the other dimension is just taken from the
window size, ignoring aspect ratio.
We also unconditionally print a newline between images to prevent them
from overlapping.

We now rewrite the binary image at runtime on Windows and XNU to change
mov %fs:0,%reg instructions to use %gs instead. There's also simpler
threading API introduced by this change and it's called _spawn() and
_join(), which has replaced most clone() usage.
Our build was flaking due to ETXTBSY errors running multiple redbean
instances in parallel. This is due to the StoreAsset() support which
seems to cause enough problems it's worth making a *breaking change*
turning it off by default for now. There's a new -* flag, to restore
redbean's old self-modifying behavior.
- Fix DescribeSigset()
- Introduce new unix.rmrf() API
- Fix redbean sigaction() doc example code
- Fix unix.sigaction() w/ more than two args
- Improve redbean re module API (non-breaking)
- Enhance Lua with Python string multiplication
- Make third parameter of unix.socket() default to 0
The Compress() and Uncompress() APIs were a mistake. The functions
themselves work fine, but it's a design blemish and does superfluous
work. Since they were only introduced in the last few weeks, they're now
deprecated and references to them have been scrubbed from the website
and other documentation. Please use the new APIs since the old APIs will
be removed at some point in the future.
This change introduces automated Lua unit tests for the Redbean APIs.
There's a few functions that were broken which have now been fixed, e.g.
Underlong() and Decimate().
- Wrap clock_getres()
- Wrap sched_setscheduler()
- Make sleep() api conformant
- Polyfill sleep() using select()
- Improve clock_gettime() polyfill
- Make nanosleep() POSIX conformant
- Slightly improve some DNS functions
- Further strengthen pledge() sandboxing
- Improve rounding of timeval / timespec
- Allow layering of pledge() calls on Linux
- Polyfill sched_yield() using select() on XNU
- Delete more system constants we probably don't need
