Writes ID3 tags using the file name as the title.

Assumes that the files are named as such: 01-Filename.mp3 If your files are named differently, change the number of periods in the sed 's/...$.*$/\1' bit to match the numbers of characters you need to cut off the front of the file. Note: This only writes the titles.
This is sample output - yours may be different.

for x in *.mp3; do y=`echo $x | sed 's/...$.*$/\1/' | sed 's/.mp3//ig'`; id3v2 --TIT2 "$y" "$x"; done

Writes ID3 tags with track numbers for mp3s in current directory

Assumes that the files are named in numerical order (ie. 01 Filename.mp3). It will set the track number as tracknumber/totaltracks (ie. 1/14). This will write both ID3v1 and ID3v2 tags. Note: This only writes the track numbers.
This is sample output - yours may be different.

x="1" && z="`ls -l * | wc -l`"; for y in *.mp3; do `id3v2 --TRCK "$x/$z" "$y"`; x=$[$x+1]; done

List out classes in of all htmls in directory

Lists out all classes used in all *.html files in the currect directory. usefull for checking if you have left out any style definitions, or accidentally given a different name than you intended. ( I have an ugly habit of accidentally substituting camelCase instead of using under_scores: i would name soemthing counterBox instead of counter_box) WARNING: assumes you give classnames in between double quotes, and that you apply only one class per element.

Insert a line at the top of a text file without sed or awk or bash loops

Yet another way to add a line at the top a of text file with the help of the tac command (reverse cat).

fast access to any of your favorite directory.

example: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- user@ubuntu:~/workspace/SVN/haystak-repos/trunk/internal/src$ addpi -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Now that directory is in the list of fast access directories. You can switch to it anytime like this: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- user@ubuntu:~$ pi internal` user@ubuntu:~/workspace/SVN/haystak-repos/trunk/internal/src$ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please note the backquote ( the symbol that shares its key with ~ in the keyboard ) pi will switch you to that directory. To see the list of all fast access directories you have to say "cat ~/.pi"
