i'm using gawk, you may get varying mileage with other varieties. You might want to change the / after du to say, /home/ or /var or something, otherwise this command might take quite some time to complete. Sorry it's so obsfucated, I had to turn a script into a one-liner under 255 characters for commandlinefu. Note: the bar ratio is relative, so the highest ratio of the total disk, "anchors" the rest of the graph. EDIT: the math was slightly wrong, fixed it. Also, made it compliant with older versions of df.
I wasted two hours reading the sox documentation and searching on the web for the format of some obscure fscking sound sample, and then finally came up with this. This plays only the first three seconds of your unknown formatted sound file using every one of sox's built-in filetypes. If you don't get an exact match, you may get close.
.
I could not fit every single type in and keep it under 127 characters, so you will have to replace "..." with the full list obtainable by `$ sox --help` (or try `Show sample output`)
.
note: /usr/bin/play should be linked to sox on most systems.
Using this command you can track a moment when usb device was attached.
You can set the previous bash command as the terminal title by this command.
Explanation:
-trap assigns a command to execute at a given bash signal.
-in the $BASH_COMMAND you find the last command
-you can set the terminal title with the escape sequence: \e]0;this is the title\007
-to let the echo care about the backslashes give the -e to it
Since trap is a built in bash command you find more informatin in 'man bash'for more
