this will open a new tab in firefox for every line in a file the sleep is removable but i found that if you have a large list of urls 50+, and no sleep, it will try to open all the urls at once and this will cause them all to load a lot slower, also depending on the ram of your system sleep gives you a chance to close the tabs before they overload your ram, removing & >2/dev/null will yield unpredictable results.
Firefox.exe needs to be in the path To enhance: add a sleep... url_list contains urls: D:\>type url_list.txt http://yahoo.com google.com http://fr.news.yahoo.com
I don't think it's possible to give a (background) colour to the tab itself, since a tab is, IIUC, simply a command to the terminal to move to the right. Nevertheless, this "highlighting" can be helpful when working with tab-separated files. Show Sample Output
Can't see it here, but the non-breaking space is highlighted :)
Of course,
cat -t -e
achieves something similar, but less colourful.
Could add more code points from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_%28punctuation%29#Spaces_in_Unicode

A much shorter version of this command.
Recursively find php files and replace tab characters with spaces. Options: "\*.php" -- replace this with the files you wish to find "expand" -- replace tabs with spaces (use "unexpand" to replace spaces with tabs) "-t4" -- tabs represent 4 spaces Note: The IFS="" in the middle is to prevent 'read' from eating leading/trailing whitespace in filenames.
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!) Show Sample Output
