TTT 25-1: 10 Amazing Terminal Tips
rm is not always the best way to go, so if you find that you have a monsterous log file (or any other kind, for that matter) that you need to get rid of, simply overwrite it by generating an empty file of the same name in the same location as the original. This may not be hugely useful for most of us, but on the off chance, you could do something like the following: touch /random-path/filename (fill in your path and file name, and viola, the huge file goes away.
Remember xargs from last week? We’re gonna talk about it again, right now… ever needed to copy some output into multiple files? Well, here’s how to get that done:
echo /home/user/1/ /home/user/2/ /home/user/3/ | xargs -n 1 cp -v /home/user/my_file.txt
(the above is, of course, generic, so customize it according to your needs)
Did you know that you can set a shutdown time for your system? Here is how: sudo shutdown _time_, substituting your desired time for the operation in 24 hour format, rather than 12 hour.
Also, have you ever found yourself running commands and wondering how to navigate from the beginning of a line to the end, or vice versa? Well, should you find yourself in that scenario, ctrl+a will move your cursor to the beginning of the command, and ctrl+e will take you to the end of the line.
