No.
id type out
more ~/.bash_history | grep lsand copy, paste before id type outlstbhWhy do all that typing? Hit ctrl-r first then type ls. Bonus points if you hook fzf into it.
fzf hooked into ctrl-r, a bash history of about 100k and HISTCONTROL=ignoreboth is magic.
Note: backup your history file periodically, system crashes at the wrong time can zero it leaving you incompetent until it’s restored.
Pretty sure you just got wooshed…
Probably, but I’ll spread the good word anyway.
This whole post is ridiculous, idk if its possible to get whooshed in here.
Yeah it’s ridiculous. That’s the woosh. The statement was “I’d type
more blah piped to ls then copy and pastebefore typingls”It’s absurd. It’s obviously absurd. If you didn’t pick up on that, you got wooshed
Useless use of
moreYou can pipe it to wl-copy, and then when you need it all you need to type is wl-paste
at least you avoided a “useless cat” by using “more” instead. Respect Bro!
L and s are on the other side of the keyboard and I only have one hand free. Too much work.
Finally somebody that gets the joke lol all these people in here “well akchually” not getting it
This guy keeps his porn in /var?
Then you try this on Windows and are disappointed that it doesn’t remember anything from your last session.
My Powershell history broke yesterday after a very intense git session ;-;
You can Ctrl+R, type “ls”, then keep hitting Ctrl+R until you find one without arguments if you need them. Efficiency at its finest.
Thank you for this
I usually bind it to my up arrow. Means I can still keep tapping up ;)
oh god it me.
I’m only now trying to Ctrl-R my way out of this mess.
zsh if you can survive configuring it
Looks more like trying to get into the bios
One finger is not enough for that, could be ESC, F2, F12, DEL or whatever else the bios manufacturer landed on when they threw a dart at the keyboard.
Roll your face across the keyboard repeatedly
It’s more reliable than guessing the key.
Works 10/10 times, tested
If you’re on an EFI based system and have systemd, you can use
systemctl reboot --firmware-setupto get into BIOS!Wow, this really is the 21st century
DEL has always worked in my experience, even when they don’t specify it.
If people are going to make comics about me, they could at least let me know.
We tried telling you.
Maybe if you stopped screaming every time we tried, but nooo, SOMEONE has to have issues with the voices in their walls.
They’re never going to find the body anyway. Stop worrying.
Oh, that’s a relief, thank you. You can go back making barely audible whispers and occasionally humming Baby Shark now.
What if you are the wall
It’s time to ask yourself what you really are, because for all your big talk, all in all, you’re just another brick in the wall.
Jfc, how did they film me?
You’re in the Matrix
Ctrl-r
That said… I didn’t discover it so early as I should…
Me last Thursday:
user@work5:~$ [CTRL-R] ls
user@work5:~$ ls
me: “That will do…”
Last week I switched to a new distro and decided to nuke everything except my personal data in my backup. I immediately regretted not saving my shell history file.
Go with McFly and save the history database, you won’t regret.
Fzf does a great job as a Ctrl-r browser too
alias l=lsso you can finally breathealias ls = "cat ~/.bash_history | grep ls"Edit: Even better:
alias ls = "$( cat ~/.bash_history | grep -x ls | tail -1 )"That’s just showing off, take an upvote
Ouff… way too accurate.
