# Piper.run_command(cmd, options={}, script:nil, usage=nil, synonyms:nil,
# mode:'r', exception:nil, forward_pass:nil **popt, &blk)
# Too many features to fully cover in a synopsis...

# Predefined Rubish:
Rubish.bash 'echo "Hello!"' #=> "Hello!\n"
Rubish.bash? 'which ruby' #=> true

# Define you own Rubish shell call:
Rubish.shell('ruby', default:'puts RUBY_VERSION')

Rubish.ruby('puts "Hello!"') #=> "Hello!\n"
# And define you own Rubish command call:

Helpema::SSSS.split
### SSSS.split ####
SSSS.split(secret: "Top Secret!", threshold: 2, shares: 3)
#~> ^\["1-\h+", "2-\h+", "3-\h+"\]$
# Note that the split has random outputs on the same inputs.
SSS.combine
#### SSSS.combine ###
# Pregenerated splits combine to reproduce the secret.

### YouTubeDL.json ###
list = []

# The url was for just one video
list.length #=> 1

ZBar.screen
### ZBar.screen ###
# Reads qrcodes on screen.
string_or_nil = Helpema::ZBar.screen
ZBar.cam
### ZBar.cam ###
# Reads qrcodes from camera.
# You may want to wrap this one in a Timeout block.
# string = ZBar.cam
GPG.encrypt and GPG.decrypt
### GPG Symmetric ###
## String to String
encrypted = Helpema::GPG.encrypt(passphrase: '<Secret>', string: '<Plain Text>')
decrypted = Helpema::GPG.decrypt(passphrase: '<Secret>', string: encrypted)
#=> "<Plain Text>"
## File to File
# Got a text file...
`md5sum tmp/text.txt` #~> ^d27b3111fdeb72f2862909c216214bc1
# gpg wont overwrite, so need to remove existing...
File.exist?(_='tmp/text.enc') and File.unlink(_)
File.exist?(_='tmp/text.dec') and File.unlink(_)
# Encrypt text file...
Helpema::GPG.encrypt(passphrase: '<Secret>', input: 'tmp/text.txt', output: 'tmp/text.enc') #=> ""
# Decrypt encrypted file...
Helpema::GPG.decrypt(passphrase: '<Secret>', input: 'tmp/text.enc', output: 'tmp/text.dec') #=> ""
# Decrypted file should match...
`md5sum tmp/text.dec` #~> ^d27b3111fdeb72f2862909c216214bc1
## IO to IO
require 'stringio'
pio = StringIO.new '<Plain>'
eio = StringIO.new ''
dio = StringIO.new ''
Helpema::GPG.encrypt(passphrase: '<Secret>', ioin: pio, ioout: eio)
eio.rewind
Helpema::GPG.decrypt(passphrase: '<Secret>', ioin: eio, ioout: dio)
dio.string #=> "<Plain>"
TROUBLESHOOTING:
- Command version mismatch: set
Helpema::WRAPPER.version = "your.version"
or just nil it.
