Pacman option to assume “yes” to every question?
When installing software in debian systems we can put something like this:
Unix & Linux
Send commands to another terminal
I have this setup where I have computer with ssh and a display where I have a user logged in to terminal. What I want to do is send commands like I was using that local session with keyboard. I tried to echo to /dev/tty1 but it just shows what I typed instead executing it. Which makes sense. The system only has bash so no GUI or anything like that.
Count files in a directory by extension
For the purpose of testing, I’d like count how many images files are inside a directory, separating each image file type by file extension (jpg=”yes”. This because later it will be useful for another script that will execute an action on each file extension). Can I use something like the following for only JPEG files?
How can I move files by type recursively from a directory and its sub-directories to another directory?
What would be a good way to move a file type from a directory and all of its sub-directories?
How to create a custom Linux distro that runs just one program and nothing else?
How I could go about creating my own “custom” Linux distro that will run just one program, pretty much exactly the same way as XBMCbuntu.
Understanding find(1)’s -exec option (curly braces & plus sign)
Using the following command, could someone please explain what exactly is the purpose for the ending curly braces ({}) and plus sign (+)?
Why does bash ignore SIGTERM?
Sometimes when I want to logout quickly I do kill -15 -1. I’ve noticed that bash is ignoring SIGTERM.
Why do newline characters get lost when using command substitution?
The read utility shall read a single line from standard input.
grep strange behaviour with single letter words
I am removing stop words from a text, roughly using this
code
What exactly is an environment variable?
I know that VARIABLE=value creates an environment variable, and export VARIABLE=value makes it available to processes created by the current shell. env shows the current environment variables, but where do they live? What comprises an environment variable (or an environment, for that matter)?
