I was busy last days...

for diff directories and !$


Can you please explain in details how exactly this
work? Step by step please.

I didn't know that "eval $'\x77'" is the same like "w" command, I thought that $'\x77' is an environmental variable, but I cannot find it anywhere within printenv output.

What is \x77 ?

Oooops, sorry, I got toooo 'obfuscated' here
Semi-beyond what I know; I'm learning 'stuff' here too!!!

\x77 is the ascii for w

Try this (1 cmd per line instead ok): >ls ls ; <ls cat ; rm ls

Now, it's your turn to teach me something!!!

I made a piece of toast with linux today.

I really didn't know that you can change positions here ">ls ls" and that everything will stay the same. So, this ">ls ls" is completely the same as this "ls >ls".
I always thought that this part ">ls" must be at the end. Explainshell.com is great, very useful. I didn't know about that site before, thanks for link.
Putting commands line by line I succeeded to figure out what those commands do .



Linux is everywhere.

Does your toaster have UEFI? Wait: BSD isn't Linx!!!

If, when you boarded a plane, you were handed: a seat, four bolts, a wrench and a copy of the seat-HOWTO, would you fly? Or go back to just watching thru Windows?

It's a 'smart' toaster.

Also there is Ctrl-Z that pauses the current foreground command and gives control to the shell. Works fine with vi/vim.
To continue the paused command type command fg.
Some commands (but not interactive ones like vi/vim!) can be continued in the background, then type bg.
Note that vim -Z or rvim starts vim in restricted mode: all shell escapes are denied. This is very useful in cnnection with sudo.

Many thanks for this. This is even maybe faster then :! some-command. I will for sure start to use this.

All of you guys I wanted to ask if you have interest to join my skype Linux group. I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post my group link here?

If you have interest to chat about linux in general, linux commands, and so on, please send me a PM.

There are times when we are not able to type (car driving, walking, ...), but we could use voice messages instead. In that way we could use "unusable" times (walking, driving, etc) and make them useful -learning about linux.

Any of you interested to talk about linux via skype messenger? If yes, please send me a PM so I can give you the group link.

Edit:
I'm not able to find a way how to send a PM to some forum member. Please let me know how to do it.

PM isn't enabled until an LQ Member reaches 150 posts, sorry.
But 'we' (>150posts) can email you (but you <150posts can't *initiate* an email to 'us')
(note that IF I email you, you will receive my actual email address, which I rarely read!!!)

A better idea is (IF you can spare $5): $contribute (link at very bottom of every page)
