Get primary IP of the local machine

Plenty of commands out there for finding external IP, but sometimes getting the [internal] IP bound to the NIC handling Internet traffic is useful. Probably not production worthy, but a useful quick kludge. Assumes IPv4 and no fancy routing. Show Sample Output

Grep live log tailing, tracks file open/close

"-F" will continue tailing if file is closed and another file opened with same name. This is handy for tailing log files that segment while watching them without having to issue the command again.

get xclip to own the clipboard contents

"Copying" things to the X clipboard doesn't normally create a copy. Rather the data to be 'copied' is referenced. This means that if the application that you 'copied' stuff from is closed, that data is lost. If the application that you 'copied' from is suspended with CTRL-Z, there could be some issues if you try to paste it into something. This command will create a copy of referenced data and have xclip be the provider of it, so you can then go ahead and close the app that contains the original information. Caveat: I'm not sure if this is binary-safe (though i would expect it to be), and don't know what would happen if you used it to clip a 20 meg gimp image. This technique becomes more convenient if you set it up as an action in a clipboard manager (eg klipper, parcellite). Some of these applets can take automatic action based on a variety of parameters, so you could probably just get it to always own the clipped data whenever data is clipped.

Automatically skip bad songs in your MPD playlist.

Case insensitive. Also you can pull in the songs from a blacklist, one per line - while :; do (mpc current | grep -i -f blacklist.txt && mpc next); sleep 5; done

Get the Volume labels all bitlocker volumes had before being encrypted

Get information of volume labels of bitlocker volumes, even if they are encrypted and locked (no access to filesystem, no password provided). Note that the volume labels can have spaces, but only if you name then before encryption. Renaming a bitlocker partition after being encrypted does not have the same effect as doing it before.
