IMAPdedup is a command-line utility that looks for duplicate messages in a set of IMAP mailboxes and tidies up all but the first copy of any duplicates found.

To be more exact, it marks the second and later occurrences of a message as 'deleted' on the server. Exactly what that does in your environment will depend on your mail server and your mail client.

Some mail clients will let you still view such messages in situ, so you can take a look at what's happened before 'compacting' the mailbox. Sometimes deleted messages appear in a 'Trash' folder. Sometimes they are hidden and can be displayed and un-deleted if wanted, until they are purged.

Whatever your system does, you will usually have the option to see what has been deleted, and to recover it if needed, using your email program, after running this script. (If your server purges the deleted messages automatically, you may be able to prevent this with the --no-close option.) There is also a 'dry-run' option, so you can check what might happen before doing anything scary.

🖥️ New post! Yesterday I imported all my YouTube subscriptions into Feedbin so that I can watch videos via RSS. To do this I needed to turn my 500+ subscriptions into an OPML file. In this post I detail how I did it using a combination of awk, curl, jaq, JavaScript, shell, scraper, and Python.

If you use poetry to manage your venv for each repo, you can also do: poetry shell to use start the virtualenv, and then run nvim . to start coding.

Provided that your dap is setup like this:

local dap = require("dap")  
dap.configurations.python = {  
 {  
 type = "python",  
 request = "launch",  
 name = "Launch file",  
 program = "${file}",  
 pythonPath = "python",  
 },  
}

TIL: if I want to debug [#python](https://gts.cupcakerob.nl/tags/python) :python: in [#neovim](https://gts.cupcakerob.nl/tags/neovim) :nvim:
your imported packages need to be in the same python env that debugpy is.

Now in [#LazyVim](https://gts.cupcakerob.nl/tags/lazyvim) , [#mason](https://gts.cupcakerob.nl/tags/mason) installs debugpy in it's own venv and the debug adapter can't find the other packages

so: install debugpy in your venv and run

:lua require('dap-python').setup('./venv/bin/python')

or use vscode/pycharm or something if you have a life ;-)

Happy 30th to [#Python](https://mastodon.social/tags/Python) 1.0.0, announced by Guido van Rossum on 27 Jan 1994 in comp.lang.misc! 🎂 🎈 3️⃣0️⃣ 🍾 🎉

Python 1.0.0 is out!

Guido van Rossum
27 Jan 1994

--> Tired of decyphering the Perl code you wrote last week?

--> Frustrated with Bourne shell syntax?

--> Spent too much time staring at core dumps lately?

Maybe you should try Python, the next generation object-oriented
scripting and prototyping language, with a *readable* syntax.
