Commands using ls

Nothing too magical here, just uses pngcrush to losslessly compress all your pngs!

ls -al gives all files, sort +4n sorts by 5th field numerically

executed on SLES 11.2

Cleaner than adding -p to ls ( eg ls -alp ), this will tell ls to only output directories in the file listing, whilst maintaining all the usual other column elements of the ls output.

This will generate the same output without changing the current directory, and filepath will be relative to the current directory.

Note: it will (still) fail if your iTunes library is in a non-standard location.

works only in zsh, requires EXTENDED_GLOB to be set.

List all commands present on system by folder.

To get all directories, replace pattern*/ by just */

Remove all zero size files from current directory. Its a not recursive option like:

find . -size 0c -exec rm {} \;

When I do a major change in my entities, I want to find a way to find all my Entities names and create the commande for me.

So instead of doing ls src/Your/OwnBundle... and then do it manually, this helps a lot.

print pdf man ls

Here's an annotated version of the command, using full-names instead of aliases. It is exactly equivalent to the short-hand version.

# Recursively list all the files in the current directory.

Get-ChildItem -Recurse |

# Filter out the sub-directories themselves.

Where-Object { return -not $_.PsIsContainer; } |

# Group the resulting files by their extensions.

Group-Object Extension |

# Pluck the Name and Count properties of each group and define

# a custom expression that calculates the average of the sizes

# of the files in that group.

# The back-tick is a line-continuation character.

Select-Object `

Name,

Count,

@{

Name = 'Average';

Expression = {

# Average the Length (sizes) of the files in the current group.

return ($_.Group | Measure-Object -Average Length).Average;

}

} |

# Format the results in a tabular view, automatically adjusted to

# widths of the values in the columns.

Format-Table -AutoSize `

@{

# Rename the Name property to something more sensible.

Name = 'Extension';

Expression = { return $_.Name; }

},

Count,

@{

# Format the Average property to display KB instead of bytes

# and use a formatting string to show it rounded to two decimals.

Name = 'Average Size (KB)';

# The "1KB" is a built-in constant which is equal to 1024.

Expression = { return $_.Average / 1KB };

FormatString = '{0:N2}'

}

* grep -i leaves only mp3 files (case insentitive)

* sort -R randomizes list (may use GNU 'shuf' instead).

* the sed command will add double quotes around each filename (needed if odd characters are present)

Compare the ls -Rl output of two directories in meld (you can also use diff -y instead of meld).

This let me find some a set of modifications that were made to a rather large tree of files, where the file-names themselves were not unique (actually: insanely redundant and useless. "1.dat 2.dat ..."). Pruning down to last-branch brough things back to the "project-name" scope, and it's then easy to see which branches of the tree have recently changed, or any other similar search.

Ideally, it should sort the directories by the mtime of the most recent *file* *inside* the directory, but that's probably outside the scope of a (sane...) command line.
