Sum size of files returned from FIND

find text in a file

this will find text in the directory you specify and give you line where it appears.

Remove color codes (special characters) with sed

Works great on Mac OSX.

Runs previous command replacing foo by bar every time that foo appears

Very useful for rerunning a long command changing some arguments globally. As opposed to ^foo^bar, which only replaces the first occurrence of foo, this one changes every occurrence.

Find and copy scattered mp3 files into one directory

I used this command to recursively gather all mp3 files that were previously imported into their own directories (sorted by band name) in Songbird.

Show word-by-word differences between two latex files, in color

Recover resolution when a fullscreen program crashes and you're stuck with a tiny X resolution

This forces X back to its maximum resolution configured. To get a list, type `xrandr'.

uncomment the lines where the word DEBUG is found

Go to the Nth line of file
