Create files of the desired size.
A Python version is also available.
Simple example:
$ fwrite testfile 100M
Using nimble:
$ nimble install fwrite
Using nim compiler:
Since only the standard library is used, just download the single source code file and compile it:
$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pdrb/nim-fwrite/master/src/fwrite.nim $ nim c -d:release fwrite.nim
Usage: fwrite filename size [options] create files of the desired size, e.g., 'fwrite test 10M' Options: -v, --version show program's version number and exit -h, --help show this help message and exit -r, --random use random data (very slow) -l, --linefeed append line feed every 1023 bytes
Create file "test" with 100KB:
$ fwrite test 100K
Create file "test" with 1GB:
$ fwrite test 1G
Create file "test" with 10MB of random data:
$ fwrite test 10M -r
Create file "test" with 10MB of random data with line feed:
$ fwrite test 10M -r -n
