Check These Out
EDIT: command updated to support accented characters!
Works in any of 58 google supported languages (some sound like crap, english is the best IMO).
You get a mp3 file containing your query in spoken language. There is a limit of 100 characters for the "q" parameter, so be careful. The "tl" parameter contains target language.

The (in)famous "FizzBuzz" programming challenge, answered in a single line of Bash code. The "|column" part at the end merely formats the output a bit, so if "column" is not installed on your machine you can simply omit that part. Without "|column", the solution only uses 75 characters.
The version below is expanded to multiple lines, with comments added.
for i in {1..100} # Use i to loop from "1" to "100", inclusive.
do ((i % 3)) && # If i is not divisible by 3...
x= || # ...blank out x (yes, "x= " does that). Otherwise,...
x=Fizz # ...set x to the string "Fizz".
((i % 5)) || # If i is not divisible by 5, skip (there's no "&&")...
x+=Buzz # ...Otherwise, append (not set) the string "Buzz" to x.
echo ${x:-$i} # Print x unless it is blanked out. Otherwise, print i.
done | column # Wrap output into columns (not part of the test).
Run this in / in a chroot to get your own proc there.
This is a command template for achiving the following:
* loop over files --> find -name "" | while read file; do ...; done
* output progress --> echo -n .
* execute some command on each file and save output for later usage --> output=$()
* if command failed, open subshell and echo newline --> || (echo;...;...;)
* echo output of command --> echo "$output"
Used to copy and paste a terminal buffer of a python interactive session into an editor
If you are using an xterm emulation capable terminal emulator, such as PuTTY or xterm on Linux desktop, this command will replace the title of that terminal window. I know it is not nice to have seventeen terminals on your desktop with title PuTTY, you can not tell which one is connected to which server and doing what.
Even though the string between the quotes is typed as literals, it needs a little more finesse to make it work. Here is how it is done key-by-key:
echo "( ctrl-v then ctrl-[ )0;Enter_Title_String_Here( ctrl-v then ctrl-g )"( enter )
ctrl-v : means hold down ctrl key and hit v at the same time like you are pasting in windoze ; also please don't type the parentheses, i.e., ( and )
Create a tarball on the client and send it across the network with netcat on port 1234 where its extracted on the server in the current directory.
