Selecting a random file/folder of a folder
Also looks in subfolders

Kill all processes that don't belong to root/force logoff
explanation: grep -- displays process ids -v -- negates the matching, displays all but what is specified in the other options -u -- specifies the user to display, or in this case negate The process loops through all PIDs that are found by pgrep, then orders a forced kill to the processes in numerical order, effectively killing the parent processes first including the shells in use which will force the users to logout. Tested on Slackware Linux 12.2 and Slackware-current

Add fade in/out to first & last 25 frames of a video
Replace vid.mp4 with the path to your original video file, and out.mp4 to the path where you want to save the new file. To view the output first before saving, remove "-consumer avformat:out.mp4" from the end.

Inserts the results of an autocompletion in the command line
Pressing ESC then * will insert in the command line the results of the autocompletion. It's hard to explain but if you look the sample output or do $ echo ESC * you will understand quickly. By the way, few reminders about ESC : - Hold ESC does the same thing as tab tab - 'ESC .' inserts the last argument of last command (can be done many times in order to get the last argument of all previous commands)

Makes the permissions of file2 the same as file1
Also works with: $chgrp --reference file1 file2 $chown --reference file1 file2

make, or run a script, everytime a file in a directory is modified
