in bash 4.4.12,
giving an invalid option to ulimit gives a usage:
ulimit: usage: ulimit [-SHabcdefiklmnpqrstuvxPT] [limit]
-SH are for Soft/Hard, so they don't count and -a is for all,
so skipping the first 4, the rest:
but the rest:
ops=$(ulimit -h |& perl -ne 'm{\[([^\]]++)\]} && print "$1\n"')
ops=${ops:4}
echo ops=$ops
for ((i=0; i<${#ops};++i));do
op=${ops:i:1}
out=$(echo "-$op: $(ulimit -$op 2>&1)")
((${#out}>30)) && echo "$out"
done
