====== my most used local scripts ======

in ''~/.local/bin'' usually. also in my [[https://bytes.4-walls.net/kat/dotfiles/src/branch/main/config/.local/bin|dotfiles]]. sometimes from my ''.bashrc'' file.

==== whatip ====

get my internal & external IP address. results are piped to lolcat because i like cute things ok

<code bash>
# print internal & external IPs
whatip() {
	# internal
	echo -n "internal IP: " | lolcat -p 0.7; hostname -I | awk '{print $1}'
	# external
	echo -n "external IP: " | lolcat -p 0.7; curl -4 icanhazip.com
}
</code>

==== notif ====

used after long-running programs like ''watch'' or ''dig'' because i will easily forget about something i'm waiting on like that.

<code bash>
# to get quick notifs
# after long commands
notif() {
	notify-send "done!"
	paplay -q /usr/share/sounds/sound-icons/start
	spd-say -t female3 -r +25 "done!"
}
</code>

==== mvpn ====

launch applications excluded from current and future VPN sessions (until window is closed).

i have this aliased to ''mterm'' and ''mftp'', respectively, to launch a terminal or filezilla window with this script.

<code bash>
#!/usr/bin/env bash

nohup mullvad-exclude "$1" > /dev/null || echo "failed to launch $1" 2>&1 &
