Stay in the loop…

Follow the Tweets.

Every new command is wrapped in a tweet and posted to Twitter. Following the stream is a great way of staying abreast of the latest commands. For the more discerning, there are Twitter accounts for commands that get a minimum of 3 and 10 votes - that way only the great commands get tweeted.

What others think

Got a error with the

sort -u

bit, as follows:

qsort: string comparison failed: Illegal byte sequence

sort: Set LC_ALL='C' to work around the problem.

sort: The strings compared were `\273' and `[1486]http://www.catonmat.net/blog/christmas-tree-in-the-shell/'.

I removed the 'sort -u' and send the output to a file. Then I looked at the file and this is what I saw:

=== START ===

[3]http://commandlinefu.uservoice.com/

[9]http://twitter.com/commandlinefu

[10]http://twitter.com/commandlinefu3

[11]http://twitter.com/commandlinefu10

[448]http

[449]httpd

[450]http_code

[1486]http://www.catonmat.net/blog/christmas-tree-in-the-shell/

-dump

80/tcp

paste(){

listhw(){

http://www.commandlinefu.com/mozilla_search_plugin.xml

=== END ===

Any explanation?

Comment by fukr 83 weeks and 6 days ago

Ok, so some of the output between the START and END tags was removed.

there are two lines with <BB> immediately prior to the line that starts with [1486].
