The -p parameter tell the netstat to display the PID and name of the program to which each socket belongs or in digestible terms list the program using the net.Hope you know what pipe symbol means!

Presently we wish to only moniter tcp connections so we ask grep to scan for string tcp, now from the op of grep tcp we further scan for regular expression /[a-z]*.

Wonder what that means ?

If we look at the op of netstat -p we can see that the name of the application is preceded by a / ( try netstat -p ) so,now i assume application name contains only characters a to z (usually this is the case) hope now it makes some sense.Regular expression /[a-z]* means to scan a string that start with a / and contains zero or more characters from the range a-z !!. Foof .. is t

-r ? указывает на то, что нужно рекурсивно переходить по ссылкам на сайте, чтобы скачивать страницы.

-k ? используется для того, чтобы wget преобразовал все ссылки в скаченных файлах таким образом, чтобы по ним можно было переходить на локальном компьютере (в автономном режиме).

-p ? указывает на то, что нужно загрузить все файлы, которые требуются для отображения страниц (изображения, css и т.д.).

-l ? определяет максимальную глубину вложенности страниц, которые wget должен скачать (по умолчанию значение равно 5, в примере мы установили 7). В большинстве случаев сайты имеют страницы с большой степенью вложенности и wget может просто ?закопаться?, скачивая новые страницы. Чтобы этого не произошло можно использовать параметр -l.

-E ? добавлять к загруженным файлам расширение .html.

-nc ? при использовании данного параметра существующие файлы не будут перезаписаны. Это удобно, когда нужно продолжить загрузку сайта, прерванную в предыдущий раз.

Most systems (at least my macbook) have system users defined, such as _www and using "users" for example will not list them. This command allows you to see who the 'virtual' users are on your system.

A good way to understand what you've let yourself in for. Potential project metric could be the count:

this will increase the volume by 2 decibels on the pcm channel. the argument to -c is for which sound card to use, the arg after set is the channel (PCM, Master, etc.) and what to set by.

related commands:

amixer -c 0 set PCM 2dB-

decrease volume by 2 decibels

amixer -c 0 set PCM toggle

toggle mute/unmute

this is for alsa systems

for mac os (and maybe other UNIX systems) osascript -e 'set Volume *' where * is any number (can have decimal points) between 0 and 10

Corrected.

Well this can come handy , when you don't feel like playing with pid rather if you know

the process name say "firefox",it would kill it.The script given below would kill the process with its name given as first parameter , though not robust enough to notify that process doesn't exist , well if you know what you are doing that's wouldn't be a problem.:)

Add an alias to your .bashrc that allows you to issue the command xkcd to view (with gwenview) the newest xkcd comic... I know there are thousands of them out there but this one is at least replete with installer and also uses a more concise syntax... plus, gwenview shows you the downloading progress as it downloads the comic and gives you a more full featured viewing experience.

This command does the following:

- converts any sequence of multiple spaces/tabs to one space only

- completely removes any space(s)/tab(s) at the end of each line

(If spaces and tabs are mixed in a sequence i.e. [tab][tab][space][tab], you have to execute this command twice!)
