Commands using cut (586)
-
xargs deals badly with special characters (such as space, ' and "). In this case if you have a file called '12" record'. Parallel https://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/parallel/ does not have this problem. Both solutions work bad if the number of files is more than the allowed line length of the shell.
-2svn st | cut -c 9- | parallel -X tar -czvf ../backup.tgz -
If a directory name contains space xargs will do the wrong thing. Parallel https://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/parallel/ deals better with that. Show Sample Output
-2du -s * | sort -nr | head | cut -f2 | parallel -k du -sh -
-2cut -f2 file.txt | cut -d " " -f1

Currently Facebook has updated their headers to display 127.0.0.1 but if you have saved e-mails from messages and FB related mail you can still reveal the IP. :) Tested on Mac OS X 10.6.3 Show Sample Output
-2echo "X-Facebook: from zuckmail ([MTI3LjAuMC4x])" | cut -d \[ -f 2 | cut -d \] -f 1 | openssl base64 -d -
-2cut -d: -f1 /etc/passwd | sort

Another one. Maybe not the quicker because of the sort command, but it will also look in other man sections. updated with goodevilgenius 'shuf' idea
-2man $(ls -1 /usr/share/man/man?/ | shuf -n1 | cut -d. -f1) -
-2wget -O- -q http://www.nomachine.com/download-package.php?Prod_Id=2067 | sed -n -e 'H;${x;s/\n/ /g;p;}' | sed -e "s/[Hh][Rr][Ee][Ff]=\"/\n/g" | cut -d "\"" -f1 | sort -u | grep deb$

Of course, this command must be executed at a GRID User Interface lhcb - name of your VO, substitute it with the one you are interested it. Show Sample Output

This is what we use. You can grep -v 127.0.0.1 if you wish.
-2ifconfig | grep -o "inet [^ ]*" | cut -d: -f2 -
Identical output but a different way without having to shoot with the Awk cannon :)
-2df | grep -w '/media/mountpoint' | cut -d " " -f 1 -
Same output Show Sample Output
-2df | grep -w '/media/armadillo' | cut -d " " -f 1 -
I can't put the last ^2 with seq, so I reverse it to delete the last +N. So for doing sum(N^2) you have to do sum((N+1)^2). Must be a better way. Show Sample Output
-2seq -s^2+ 11 |rev| cut -d'+' -f2- | rev | bc -
Nothing special about hashing here, only the use of cut, I think, could result at fewer keystrokes. Show Sample Output
-2echo -n "String to MD5" | md5sum | cut -f1 -d' ' -
cut -f1 -d\<TAB>-2cut -f1 -d"<TAB>" -
-2lynx -useragent=Opera -dump 'http://www.facebook.com/ajax/typeahead_friends.php?u=4&__a=1' |gawk -F'\"t\":\"' -v RS='\",' 'RT{print $NF}' |grep -v '\"n\":\"' |cut -d, -f2

Displays live hosts on the same network as the local machine with their hostnames and IP addresses. This command is IPv6 and multiple network adapter safe and does not rely on awk or sed, however it requires the "nmap" package installed. Might not work on OSX. Example alias for shell startup file:
alias livehosts='nmap -sP "$(ip -4 -o route get 1 | cut -d " " -f 7)"/24 | grep report | cut -d " " -f 5-'Show Sample Output-2nmap -sP "$(ip -4 -o route get 1 | cut -d ' ' -f 7)"/24 | grep report | cut -d ' ' -f 5- -
