Play awesome rythmic noise using aplay

Try modifying the numbers in the "(i*(i>>8|i>>9)&46&i>>8))^(i&i>>13|i>>6)" part. Crudely stolen from http://www.xkcdb.com/9067

C one-liners

/lib/ld-linux.so.2 is the runtime linker/loader for ELF binaries on Linux. =(cmd) is a zsh trick to take the output for the command "inside" it and save it to a temporary file. echo -e 'blah' | gcc -x c -o /dev/stdout - pipes the C source to gcc. -x c tells gcc that it's compiling C (which is required if it's reading from a pipe). -o /dev/stdout - tells it to write the binary to standard output and read the source from standard input. because of the the =() thing, the compiled output is stashed in a tempfile, which the loader then runs and executes, and the shell tosses the tempfile away immediately after running it.

Extract audio stream from an video file using mencoder

This command extracts the audio stream of the video in $file and stores it in a file where the original suffix is changed to .mp3

Show IP Address in prompt --> PS1 var

when working with many machines in a computer lab need to know the IP addr is very large, this is a simplistic solution to make things easier

Recursive grep of all c++ source under the current directory

I like this better than some of the alternatives using -exec, because if I want to change the string, it's right there at the end of the command line. That means less editing effort and more time to drink coffee.

Extract tar.gz file with original permission
