295fe153ad added mention of ES6 compatibility
Hello, I've added a small blockquote below the description to indicate that this method of accessing an indefinite number of function arguments has been superseded by the use of the spread operator via rest parameters for ES6+ compatibility.

# Configure Max String Print Length For Delve
During a [Delve](https://github.com/go-delve/delve) debugging session, we can
print out the value of a given variable with the `print` command. Similarly, we
can see the values of all local variables with the `locals` command.
Whenever Delve is printing out strings and slices, it will truncate what it
displays to 64 characters (or items) by default.
```go
(dlv) print diagnostics.Solutions[0]
"295743861\n431865972\n876192543\n387459216\n612387495\n549216738\n7635...+25 more"
```
This can be overridden by [changing the `config` of
`max-string-len`](https://github.com/derekparker/delve/blob/237c5026f40e38d2dd6f62a7362de7b25b00c1c7/Documentation/cli/expr.md?plain=1#L59)
to something longer. In my case here, all I need are about 90 characters to
display my full string, so run `config max-string-len 90` from the `dlv`
session.
```go
(dlv) config max-string-len 90
(dlv) print diagnostics.Solutions[0]
"295743861\n431865972\n876192543\n387459216\n612387495\n549216738\n763524189\n928671354\n154938627"
```
Now I can see the entire string instead of the truncated version.

# Start Amphetamine Session With AppleScript
I use the _Amphetamine_ app on Mac to keep my computer from going to sleep
during the day. It is a menu bar app that can be used to start a _Session_ of
time where it will keep your computer from going to sleep. At the start of my
day, I'll typically start an 8 hour _Session_. This is useful if I have to step
away fo 10 minutes or if I'm doing some writing in my notebook, my computer
won't go to sleep on me.
Though these sessions can be controlled from the menu bar app, I was excited to
learn that I can also programatically start a session with AppleScript.
Here is how to start a _Session_ (overriding an existing session) with options
that specify it is 8 hours long and the display should not be allowed to sleep.
```bash
$ osascript -e 'tell application "Amphetamine" to start new session with options {duration:8, interval:hours, displaySleepAllowed:false}'
```
The `interval` could also be `minutes` and then I could change the duration to
an amount of time that makes sense in minutes, e.g. `90` for 1.5 hours.
Note: the `with options {...}` segement is all or nothing. All three need to be included or don't include the clause at all.
Additionally, a session of indefinite duration can be started by including no options:
```bash
$ osascript -e 'tell application "Amphetamine" to start new session'
```
And any existing session can be ended with:
```bash
$ osascript -e 'tell application "Amphetamine" to end session'
```
