Running `barf` on OpenBSD

The barf project was built on Linux and was catered towards Linux users. The core of the project will remain focused on Linux/GNU tools, but I also need to support OpenBSD since that is my personal operating system of choice.

Then ensure that you alter all instances of sed with gsed in the core barf file. (Or make an alias if you'd prefer not to alter the main file)

After that, everything should work perfectly fine when building!

The barf project was built on Linux and was catered towards Linux users. The core of the project will remain focused on Linux/GNU tools, but that doesn't mean MacOS needs to be left out in the cold.

Supporting Basic Dark Mode

The default barf site generator now supports basic dark mode functionality. This has been achieved by including the standard color-scheme meta tag in the core header.html file:

 Minor Caveat
 Unfortunately, Safari still has minor ahref / link color issue when defaulting to browser dark mode. If this is a problem for your own build of barf, take a look at a solution I wrote about here.
-Personally, I can't be bothered to add that extra code to this project. The Safari team needs to get their shit together and fix such a simple bug. Plus, you shouldn't be using Safari anyway - it's proprietary garbage.

 Things probably look a little different around here. Both in terms of this demo site and the core barf files itself.
 This project was always intended to be focused on Linux platforms. So, I've removed the included barf_macos and barf_openbsd files to keep the generator more streamlined. But have no fear! Instructions for both Mac and OpenBSD can still be found on the main blog:

 Users still have the ability to tweak things as much as they'd like, but the standard look should be more than enough for anyone just focusing on writing. Dark mode has also been dropped but is easily added by adding the following inside the head tags:

-Hopefully these changes reduce the overall scope of the project, which was a main point made on the README originally!
