Here's a version that uses netcat (although I'd much rather use curl!).
Instead of having someone else read you the Digg headlines, Have OSX do it. Requires Curl+Sed+Say. This could probably be easily modified to use espeak for Linux.
Here's a version that doesn't use find.
hb(){ sed "s/\($*\)/`tput setaf 2;tput setab 0;tput blink`\1`tput sgr0`/gI"; }
hb blinks, hc does a reverse color with background.. both very nice.
hc(){ sed "s/\($*\)/`tput setaf 0;tput setab 6`\1`tput sgr0`/gI"; }
Run this:
command ps -Hacl -F S -A f | hc ".*$PPID.*" | hb ".*$$.*"
Your welcome ;)

no need that useless cat.
It's not a big line, and it *may not* work for everybody, I guess it depends on the detail of access_log configuration in your httpd.conf. I use it as a prerotate command for logrotate in httpd section so it executes before access_log rotation, everyday at midnight.
For this example, all files in the current directory that end in '.xml.skippy' will have the '.skippy' removed from their names.
This will unarchive the entire working directory. Good for torrents (I don't know why they put each file into a seperate archive).
This expression looks for groups inside of a GroupOfNames class element, that is itself inside one (or many) Organizational Unit (ou) nodes in the ldap tree. Give you a quick dump of all the groups the user belongs to. Handy for displaying on a webpage. Show Sample Output

Allows for quick mass renaming, assuming the user has some familiarity with regular expressions. Basically, it replaces the original_file_name in the output of ls with "mv -v original_file_name new_file_name" and passes the output to sh. Show Sample Output
Replace < pw-length > with the desired password-length. The password-length is not always correct, but wayne...
Run this in your music folder, or give the path directly after "find". The sed pattern filters away the basename. Show Sample Output

checking files in current and sub directories, finding out the files containing "sampleString" and removing the containing lines from the file. * Beware that The command will update the original file [no backup]. The command can be extended if play with 'find' command together, e.g. it is possible to execute on certain type of files: *.xml, *.txt... (find -name "*.xml" | grep....) if anybody knows a better solution on that, please drop a comment. thx.
