[SOLVED] Console: Can i create keyshortcuts for specific personal commands (e.g. ctr+3)

esgol · 07-29-2012, 02:31 PM

Programming g++.I cant stand it anymore switching with the up arrow for 1 of these 3 commands

>g++ code.cpp -o temp
>./temp
>clear

The 1st to compile, the 2nd to run, the 3rd to clear

Can i put the into key shortcutsa some way like ctrl+1

Maybe i can at least put in a shortcut 'clear' and maybe there is a combined command for the 2 others.

I'm on Kubuntu primaly and Debian secondly

EDIT: SOLUTION

Mix commands in one with &&

PHP Code:



clear && g++ code.cpp -o temp  && ./temp

The above will run each command in turn, if the previous command exits without an error

Quote:

With clear last, you don't see the results -have to scroll up.
But put clear 1st:
1st screen is cleared
then compiled
then [ONLY IF compile suceded

] the exe runs

So if you have errors in code u'll se just those and you wont be bothered by having the previous stable version of the exe run.
Just, as casual command, seems to perfect fit for the need -like if designed specially for-, to be true

Comments:
Its even more convenient than Windows enviroments like VS or Dev!
( 1st ctrl+F5 - 2nd look down for errors - 3rd look up for console - which pops in diferent position/time )

If you typically do what could be described as:

1) g++ code.cpp -o temp
2) if step 1 succeeded, do step 3
3)./temp
4) if step 3 succeeded, do step 5
5) clear

maybe you could write a simple shell script to execute the commands, check the return codes, conditionally doing each next step if the return code is correct, then give the shell script a very short name, such as a name only two characters long.

Hi,

you can put them all on one line. Eg

Code:

g++ code.cpp -o temp  && ./temp && clear

The above will run each command in turn, if the previous command exits without an error (just like kakaka describes).

HTH,

1st is cleared then compiled THEN ONLY IF (

) COMPILE SUCEDED THE EXECUTABLE RUNS

PHP Code:



clear && g++ code.cpp -o temp  && ./temp

ITS EVEN MORE CONVENIENT THAN WINDOWS! ( 1st ctrl+F5, 2nd look down for errors 3rd look up for console which pops in diferent positions its time UUUUUUUUUUUU!!!)
