Watch out if you have several USB drives plugged in: it scans the whole /media/ folder !!! You can replace /media/ by the path of a specific USB drive (something like /media/F77A-530B/) I use a sound recorder and I want to plug the recorder and grab the most recent sound. That's what this command does. Use mv instead of cp to move instead of copy. Change *.wav to the required file type.
commandlinefu.com is the place to record those command-line gems that you return to again and again. That way others can gain from your CLI wisdom and you from theirs too. All commands can be commented on, discussed and voted up or down.
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.
