• What is a good way to get back to the command prompt discarding STDOUT and STDERR

  - by elementz

  I often launch applications from the cli via e.g. command & to immediately get back to the prompt back. The downside of this is, that I still get STDOUT and STDERR. So I use command &> /dev/null to discard those outputs. This can get quite a chore, when having to write this often during a day. So my question is, is there a better (read shorter) way to discard of STDOUT and STDERR when not needed? What could be done? write a wrapper script to launch applications? What would be an elegant way to do this?

• Is \d equal to [0-9] in sed?

  - by user3872279

  7 00:00:30,008 --> 00:00:30,066 by line 8 00:00:31,038 --> 00:00:34,050 or later in the nineteen seventies it was usually a 9 00:00:34,005 --> 00:00:38,634^M video consul but the council was not capable of displaying arbitrate graphics 10 The above lines is in a file named 2.txt. I wanna the lines which doesn't start with number. In practice, sed -i '/^[0-9]+/d' 2.txt works good. However, sed -i '/^\d+/d' 2.txt doesnot. The \d shouldn't be equal to [0-9] in regex?

• tab completion for service command on debian

  - by markus

  I have two systems with debian squeeze installed. On one system when I type: service <TAB> it shows me all available service (from /etc/init.d) on the other system it shows me all files from the current directory. Does anyone know which setting changes that behaviour ? UPDATE: The file /etc/bash_completion.d/service was missing. I copied it from the machine where it is working. If I type complete -p | grep service it shows me: complete -F _service service On the machine where it is not working that command shows me nothing. I executed complete -F _service service in the command line, after that, the command service <TAB> shows me: service -su: completion: function `_service' not found this function is defined in the service file I recently copied, for some reasons it can't be found ...

• How to run script from root as another user (with user PATH)

  - by Sandra

  I would like to have these commands run as the ss user from root mkdir bin cp -r /opt/gitolite . gitolite/install -ln gitolite setup -pk ss.pub mkdir -p .gitolite/hooks/common ln -s /opt/pre-receive .gitolite/hooks/common/ so everything is executed in /home/ss. The 4th line requires $HOME/bin as you can see from the 3rd line. The only way I can get it to work is by adding su -c "command" ss to each line, which is not a nice hack. This is an extension to my previous question, where I wasn't precise enough. Question How do I run all these commands as a script in a practical way?

• what TERM to use to get rid of color escape codes?

  - by slivu

  Is there a way to get rid of escape codes in terminal output? Say even if the script are sending that codes they are ignored by terminal and text displayed as is, without colors, bolds etc. I need to display terminal output on a HTML page. For now i'm using javascript to remove escape codes, but it becomes clunky cause i receive output by chars, and have to wait until all content received then update it, leading in weird effects.

• Can I set up a hostname alias that is only active in a specific network?

  - by denisw

  I have a small ARM box running ownCloud in my house, and a domain bound to my DSL router with Dynamic DNS. This works well as I can configure the ownCloud client to use the domain name, which works both in the house and when I'm on the road. However, at home I would like to let my laptop and my server talk to each other directly on the local network, rather than as if they were talking over the Internet (including DNS resolution for my domain name, routing all traffic through the DSL machinery etc.). I know that I can set a hostname alias for my domain in /etc/hosts - the problem is that I want this alias to only be active when I'm in the home network, while in all other cases DNS resolution should be used as normal. Is this possible?

  I'm a bash user willing to switch to a more friendly and advanced shell. I read a lot of good things about zsh, but I gave a quick test at fish and it seems great too. Both seem very close in term of features, what is your opinion about those two shells ?

• how to start growl via the command line

  - by adam n

  I have a bash script that uses growlnotify to send notifications. However, growlnotify doesn't work if Growl isn't already running, and it won't auto start Growl if it needs it, either. So I want to be able to check if Growl is running, and then start it if it isn't. I'm thinking of doing something like: g=$(ps -e | grep Growl | grep -v grep) if [ -z "$g" ] # Growl isn't running then # (start Growl) fi How would I start Growl via the command line?

• How to enable tab completion from the terminal specific to the executable

  - by Synesso

  In bash, I believe it is possible to enable tab completion on the terminal for terms that are specific to the executable being invoked. For example, given an executable "eat" with valid arguments {cake, carrot, banana}, typing 'eat car' should complete to 'eat carrot'. I believe this is possible because I have seen it with 'ant' tab-completing its targets (though how this was set up I don't know). How can this behaviour be implemented?

• Temporary operation in a temporary directory in shell script

  - by jhs

  I need a fresh temporary directory to do some work in a shell script. When the work is done (or if I kill the job midway), I want the script to change back to the old working directory and wipe out the temporary one. In Ruby, it might look like this: require 'tmpdir' Dir.mktmpdir 'my_build' do |temp_dir| puts "Temporary workspace is #{temp_dir}" do_some_stuff(temp_dir) end puts "Temporary directory already deleted" What would be the best bang for the buck to do that in a Bash script? I want to trap

  For example, say I have string like: duck duck duck duck goose goose goose dog And I want it to be as sparsely populated as possible, say in this case duck goose duck goose dog duck goose duck What sort of algorithm would you recommend? Snippets of code or general pointers would be useful, languages welcome Python, C++ and extra kudos if you have a way to do it in bash.

  I need to recursively remove unnecessary files from a svn repository and i have the following batch file to do this: @echo on del /s ~*.* del /s *.~* del /s Thumbs.db However, this is also deleting the entries under the .svn/ subfolders.

• How to detect if a script is being sourced

  - by brianegge

  I have a script where I do not want it to call 'exit' if it's being sourced. Initially I though checking if $0 == bash but this has problems if the script is sourced from another script, or if the user sources it from ksh. Is there a reliable way of detecting if a script is being sourced?

• How do I echo $command without breaking the layout

  - by w00t

  Hi. I'm trying to do the following in a bash script: com=`ssh host "ls -lh" ` echo $com It works, but the echo will break the output (instead of getting all lines in a column, I get them all in a row). If I do: ssh host ls -lh in the CLI it will give me the correct output + layout. Any ideas?
