  • Write a bootable Linux .iso file directly to a USB-stick (macOS edition)

    Some of us have both Macs *and* Linux machines — so it makes sense to know how to run this command on the former in the event that a botched reinstallation renders the latter unbootable.

What's this?

commandlinefu.com is the place to record those command-line gems that you return to again and again. That way others can gain from your CLI wisdom and you from theirs too. All commands can be commented on, discussed and voted up or down.

Share Your Commands

Check These Out

Which processes are listening on a specific port (e.g. port 80)
swap out "80" for your port of interest. Can use port number or named ports e.g. "http"

save date and time for each command in history
Date-time format: YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS

Write comments to your history.
A null operation with the name 'comment', allowing comments to be written to HISTFILE. Prepending '#' to a command will *not* write the command to the history file, although it will be available for the current session, thus '#' is not useful for keeping track of comments past the current session.

create a simple version of ls with extended output
create a short alias for 'ls' with multi-column (-C), file type syntax additions (slashes after directories, @ for symlinks, etc... (-F), long format (-l), including hidden directories (all ./, ../, .svn, etc) (-a), show file-system blocks actually in use (-s), human readable file sizes (-h)

List detailed information about a ZIP archive
list zipfile info in long Unix ``ls -l'' format.

Recursively remove .svn directories from the current location

check open ports without netstat or lsof

Create a zip file ignoring .svn files

Launch firefox on a remote linux server
Actually 'firefox' is a script that then launches the 'firefox-bin' executable. You need to specify the 'no-remote' option in order to launch remote firefox instead of your local one (this drove me crazy time ago)

list directories only
