Per country GET report, based on access log. Easy to transform to unique IP Show Sample Output

Here's a version that doesn't use find.

-2cut -d: -f1 /etc/passwd | sort

Another one. Maybe not the quicker because of the sort command, but it will also look in other man sections. updated with goodevilgenius 'shuf' idea
-2man $(ls -1 /usr/share/man/man?/ | shuf -n1 | cut -d. -f1) -
-2cat `ls -r /sys/class/net/*/address` | sort -u

PmWiki stores wiki pages as Group.Name. Simply split the directory listing and count frequency of group occurances. Show Sample Output
-2cd /path/to/pmwiki/wiki.d;/bin/ls -1 | perl -ne 'my ($group,$name)=split(/\./);$counts{$group}++;' -e 'END { foreach $group (sort keys %counts) {printf("%d\t%s\n",$counts{$group},$group);} }'|sort -rn -
If both file1 and file2 are already sorted: comm -13 file1 file2 > file-new
-2comm -13 <(sort file1) <(sort file2) > file-new -
Seeing that _sort_ its been used, why not just _use_ it. ;) Show Sample Output
-2sort --random-sort file -
A different approach to the problem - maintain a small sorted list, print the largest as we go, then the top 10 at the end. I often find that the find and sort take a long time, and the large file might appear near the start of the find. By printing as we go, I get better feedback. The sort used in this will be much slower on perls older than 5.8. Show Sample Output
-2find . -type f|perl -lne '@x=sort {$b->[0]<=>$a->[0]}[(stat($_))[7],$_],@x;splice(@x,11);print "@{$x[0]}";END{for(@x){print "@$_"}' -
Finds files modified today since 00:00, removes ugly dotslash characters in front of every filename, and sorts them. *EDITED* with the advices coming from flatcap (thanks!)
-2find -maxdepth 1 -type f -newermt "00:00" -printf "%f\n" | sort -
-3function duf { du -k $@ | sort -rn | perl -ne '($s,$f)=split(/\t/,$_,2);for(qw(K M G T)){if($s<1024){$x=($s<10?"%.1f":"%3d");printf("$x$_\t%s",$s,$f);last};$s/=1024}' }

Found this one little more for me. This one removes the perl dependency (from command 2535). Source for command : http://www.earthinfo.org/linux-disk-usage-sorted-by-size-and-human-readable/ Show Sample Output
-3function duf { du -sk "$@" | sort -n | while read size fname; do for unit in k M G T P E Z Y; do if [ $size -lt 1024 ]; then echo -e "${size}${unit}\t${fname}"; break; fi; size=$((size/1024)); done; done; } -
Use the hold space to preserve lines until data is needed.
-3sed -ne '/^Package: \(.*\)/{s//\1/;h;};/^Installed-Size: \(.*\)/{s//\1/;G;s/\n/ /;p;}' /var/lib/dpkg/status | sort -rn -
-3ls -lS

-3ps -axgu | cut -f1 -d' ' | sort -u
-
All with only one pipe. Should be much faster as well (sort is slow). Use find instead of ls for recursion or reliability. Edit: case insensitive Show Sample Output
-3ls | perl -lne '++$x{lc $1} if /[.](.+)$/ }{ print for keys %x' -
-3echo Selected $(ls -1 | sort -R | head -n 1)
-
Find top 5 big files
-3find . -type f -exec ls -s {} \; | sort -n -r | head -5 -
This command might not be useful for most of us, I just wanted to share it to show power of command line. Download simple text version of novel David Copperfield from Poject Gutenberg and then generate a single column of words after which occurences of each word is counted by sort | uniq -c combination. This command removes numbers and single characters from count. I'm sure you can write a shorter version. Show Sample Output
-4wget -q -O- http://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/etext96/cprfd10.txt | sed '1,419d' | tr "\n" " " | tr " " "\n" | perl -lpe 's/\W//g;$_=lc($_)' | grep "^[a-z]" | awk 'length > 1' | sort | uniq -c | awk '{print $2"\t"$1}' -
Most systems (at least my macbook) have system users defined, such as _www and using "users" for example will not list them. This command allows you to see who the 'virtual' users are on your system. Show Sample Output
-4sudo lsof|sed 's/ */ /g'|cut -f3 -d' '|sort -u -
This command is more robust because it handles spaces, newlines and control characters in filenames. It uses printf, not ls, to determine file size.
-4count=0;while IFS= read -r -d '' line; do echo "${line#* }"; ((++count==5)) && break; done < <(find . -type f -printf '%s %p\0' | sort -znr) - ‹ First < 5 6 7 8 >
