kill all foo process

Kill all processes with foo in them. Similar to pkill but more complete and also works when there is no pkill command. Works on almost every Linux/Unix platform I have tried.

preferred way to query ps for a specific process name (not supported with all flavors of ps, but will work on just about any linux afaik)

Easily find latex package documentation

If the pdf/dvi/etc documentation for a latex package is already part of your local texmf tree, then texdoc will find and display it for you. If the documentation is not available on your system, it will bring up the package's webpage at CTAN to help you investigate.

Get a facebook likes quantity from CLI

Replace the with your URL, for example http://rublacklist.net/12348/ and it will show likes number
