Based on the MrMerry one, just add some visuals and sort directory and files
2find . -maxdepth 1 -type d|xargs du -a --max-depth=0|sort -rn|cut -d/ -f2|sed '1d'|while read i;do echo "$(du -h --max-depth=0 "$i")/";done;find . -maxdepth 1 -type f|xargs du -a|sort -rn|cut -d/ -f2|sed '$d'|while read i;do du -h "$i";done -
2grep current_state= /var/log/nagios/status.dat|sort|uniq -c|sed -e "s/[\t ]*\([0-9]*\).*current_state=\([0-9]*\)/\2:\1/"|tr "\n" " "

I've wanted this for a long time, finally just sat down and came up with it. This shows you the sorted output of ps in a pretty format perfect for cron or startup scripts. You can sort by changing the k -vsz to k -pmem for example to sort by memory instead. If you want a function, here's one from my http://www.askapache.com/linux-unix/bash_profile-functions-advanced-shell.html
aa_top_ps(){ local T N=${1:-10};T=${2:-vsz}; ps wwo pid,user,group,vsize:8,size:8,sz:6,rss:6,pmem:7,pcpu:7,time:7,wchan,sched=,stat,flags,comm,args k -${T} -A|sed -u "/^ *PID/d;${N}q"; }Show Sample Output2command ps wwo pid,user,group,vsize:8,size:8,sz:6,rss:6,pmem:7,pcpu:7,time:7,wchan,sched=,stat,flags,comm,args k -vsz -A|sed -u '/^ *PID/d;10q' -
This provides a way to sort output based on the length of the line, so that shorter lines appear before longer lines. It's an addon to the sort that I've wanted for years, sometimes it's very useful. Taken from my http://www.askapache.com/linux-unix/bash_profile-functions-advanced-shell.html Show Sample Output
2sortwc () { local L;while read -r L;do builtin printf "${#L}@%s\n" "$L";done|sort -n|sed -u 's/^[^@]*@//'; } -
Works with files containing spaces and for very large directories.
2find -type f -print0 | xargs -r0 stat -c %y\ %n | sort -
Shows a list of users that currently running processes are executing as. YMMV regarding ps and it's many variants. For example, you might need:
ps -axgu | cut -f1 -d' ' | sort -uShow Sample Output2ps -eo user | sort -u -
This uses some tricks I found while reading the bash man page to enumerate and display all the current environment variables, including those not listed by the 'env' command which according to the bash docs are more for internal use by BASH. The main trick is the way bash will list all environment variable names when performing expansion on ${!A*}. Then the eval builtin makes it work in a loop. I created a function for this and use it instead of env. (by aliasing env). This is the function that given any parameters lists the variables that start with it. So 'aae B' would list all env variables starting wit B. And 'aae {A..Z} {a..z}' would list all variables starting with any letter of the alphabet. And 'aae TERM' would list all variables starting with TERM.
aae(){ local __a __i __z;for __a in "$@";do __z=\${!${__a}*};for __i in `eval echo "${__z}"`;do echo -e "$__i: ${!__i}";done;done; }And my printenv replacement is:alias env='aae {A..Z} {a..z} "_"|sort|cat -v 2>&1 | sed "s/\\^\\[/\\\\033/g"'From: http://www.askapache.com/linux-unix/bash_profile-functions-advanced-shell.html Show Sample Output2for _a in {A..Z} {a..z};do _z=\${!${_a}*};for _i in `eval echo "${_z}"`;do echo -e "$_i: ${!_i}";done;done|cat -Tsv -
2awk '{if ($1 ~ /Package/) p = $2; if ($1 ~ /Installed/) printf("%9d %s\n", $2, p)}' /var/lib/dpkg/status | sort -n | tail
-
list top committers (and number of their commits) of svn repository. in this example it counts revisions of current directory. Show Sample Output
2svn log -q | grep '^r[0-9]' | cut -f2 -d "|" | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr -
Show disk space info, grepping out the uninteresting ones beginning with ^none while we're at it. The main point of this submission is the way it maintains the header row with the command grouping, by removing it from the pipeline before it gets fed into the sort command. (I'm surprised sort doesn't have an option to skip a header row, actually..) It took me a while to work out how to do this, I thought of it as I was drifting off to sleep last night! Show Sample Output
2df -h | grep -v ^none | ( read header ; echo "$header" ; sort -rn -k 5) -
List all MAC addresses on a Linux box. sort -u is useful when having virtual interfaces.
2sort -u < /sys/class/net/*/address -
Randomizes a file. The opposite of sort is sort -R!
2sort -R -
Tells you everything you could ever want to know about all files and subdirectories. Great for package creators. Totally secure too. On my Slackware box, this gets set upon login:
LS_OPTIONS='-F -b -T 0 --color=auto'andalias ls='/bin/ls $LS_OPTIONS'which works great. Show Sample Output2lsr() { find "${@:-.}" -print0 |sort -z |xargs -0 ls $LS_OPTIONS -dla; } -
(separator = $IFS)
2ps aux | sort -nk 6 -
sort command can sort month-wise (first three letters of each month). See the sample output for clarification. Sorting Stable ? NO. Take note if that matters to you. Sample output suggests that sort performs unstable sorting (see the relative order of two 'feb' entries). Show Sample Output
2sort -M filename -
2find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 du -h | sort -hr | head
-
2du --max-depth=1 -h * |sort -n -k 1 |egrep 'M|G'
-
Get the longest match of file extension (Ex. For 'foo.tar.gz', you get '.tar.gz' instead of '.gz') Show Sample Output
2find /some/path -type f -printf '%f\n' | grep -o '\..\+$' | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn -
Displays the duplicated lines in a file and their occuring frequency.
1cat file.txt | sort | uniq -dc -
A little bit smaller, faster and should handle files with special characters in the name.
1find . -maxdepth 1 ! -name '.' -execdir du -0 -s {} + | sort -znr | gawk 'BEGIN{ORS=RS="\0";} {sub($1 "\t", ""); print $0;}' | xargs -0 du -hs -
Counts TCP states from Netstat and displays in an ordered list. Show Sample Output
1netstat -an | awk '/tcp/ {print $6}' | sort | uniq -c -
use Linux ;) Show Sample Output
1pgrep -cu ioggstream -
Just a little simplification.
1find /path/to/dir -type f | grep -o '\.[^./]*$' | sort | uniq -
If your grep doesn't have an -o option, you can use sed instead.
1find /path/to/dir -type f -name '*.*' | sed 's@.*/.*\.@.@' | sort | uniq -
Grabs the cmdline used to execute the process, and the environment that the process is being run under. This is much different than the 'env' command, which only lists the environment for the shell. This is very useful (to me at least) to debug various processes on my server. For example, this lets me see the environment that my apache, mysqld, bind, and other server processes have. Here's a function I use:
aa_ps_all () { ( cd /proc && command ps -A -opid= | xargs -I'{}' sh -c 'test $PPID -ne {}&&test -r {}/cmdline&&echo -e "\n[{}]"&&tr -s "\000" " "<{}/cmdline&&echo&&tr -s "\000\033" "\nE"<{}/environ|sort&&cat {}/limits' ); }From my .bash_profile at http://www.askapache.com/linux-unix/bash_profile-functions-advanced-shell.html Show Sample Output1cd /proc&&ps a -opid=|xargs -I+ sh -c '[[ $PPID -ne + ]]&&echo -e "\n[+]"&&tr -s "\000" " "<+/cmdline&&echo&&tr -s "\000\033" "\nE"<+/environ|sort' - < 1 2 3 4 5 > Last ›
