This command is named "rope" since it ties a rope in the directory you are in... so when you go to other directories you can type "rope" again and you will get back to tied directory... it helps a lot when you forget to execute a command in other directories, so you can go, do what you want, and return to the directory to complete what you now want to do. NOTE: add this command to the end of ".bashrc" file found in your home directory and the alias will be permanent

Instead of using clipboard register after opening vim we can use this command in order to edit clipboard content. For those who already have "xclip -i -selection clipboard -o" aliased to pbpaste it is yet more simple, just: alias vcb='pbpaste | vim -'

!! will expand to your previous command, thus creating the alias "foo" (does not work consistently for commands with quotation marks)

1. Get name of task by task=$(basename "$(pwd)") 2. Check whether "$task.c" exists as a file 3. open "$task.c", "$task.in", "task.out" in vim with such layout. ------------------------------- |            | $task.in    | |            |                | |$task.c  |-----------------| |            | $task.out  | |            |                | -------------------------------

There is no need to use the shell or construct. Screen offers varius ways of detaching and reattaching. man screen and look for -[rRdD]. to create a named session: sdr moo hide: resume: sdr moo Show Sample Output

An alias i made for myself to play music in a faster way. Works great when you have Guake / Tilda installed (Console that drops down like in the game QUAKE) --- I put this in my bash_alias file (I'm on ubuntu, the bash_alias file does autostart with the right config) but it works putting it in bashrc too. Or anything that autostarts when the console is opened. --- Needs Mplayer and music files to work. With out music theres nothing to play! Oh, and also, without modification, this alias will try to play stuff from your ~/Music folder! (case sensitive). Make sure that folder exists and has music OR edit this alias to fit your needs.

This is the alias command that I discussed in my prior release which you can add to your ~/.bashrc. This command asks for the station name and then connects to somafm, Great for those who have linux home entertainment boxes and ssh enabled on them, just for the CLI fiends out there ( I know I'm one of them ;) You can find future releases of this and many more scripts at the teachings of master denzuko - denzuko.co.cc.

This is *NOT* about the -i option in grep. I guess everybody already knows that option. This is about the basic rule of life that the simplest things are sometimes the best. ;-) One day when I used "grep -i" for the umpteenth time, I decided to make this alias, and I've used it ever since, probably more often than plain grep. (In fact I also have aliases egrip and fgrip defined accordingly. I also have wrip="grep -wi" but I don't use this one that often.) If you vote this down because it's too trivial and simplistic, that's no problem. I understand that. But still this is really one of my most favourite aliases.
