Forgotten bash commands
There are a few usefull bash commands I came across during my software career, that has a special meaning and should be used more often. I guess everyone has theyre own workflow, but mine works well with the few forgotten ones below:
pushd
Directory stack tool used in shell scripting
pushd
popd
Directory stack tool used in shell scripting
popd
curl cheat.sh
Summarizes man pages for particular command, example:
curl cheat.sh/vim
Here I even went a step further and edited my ~/.zshrc with a new alias:
alias ch = ‘curl cheat.sh/${0}’
This way I can simply type in ‘ch vim’ and look up docs for anything much quicker
progress
Shows progress while copying large files in terminal
cp file.a /directory & progress -mp $!
watch
Watches if file console.txt exists and sends signal if it does
watch -n 0.1 ls console.txt
