@heinelo das kann ich gut nachvollziehen, allerdings würde ich auch ins Feld führen, daß #macos im Kern auch ein linuixes System ist und von daher so genutzt werden kann.
In der graphischen Industrie sind #adobe Produkte einfach nicht weg zu denken. Deswegen verwende ich meine #mac Rechner eher wie #opensource Plattformen. Installationen werden mit #shellscripting erledigt und Programme mit #homebrew installiert.
Ich verwende keine AppleIDs, eigene Clouds, Aressbücher, Kalender und einen eigenen Mailserver bei Kunden und bei mir selbst.
So finde ich ist ein #macos ein unabhängiges System, welches auch keinem #killswitch ausgesetzt sein wird, denn sollte sich Apple dazu entscheiden keine Updates mehr zu liefern – was ich nicht glaube – dann installiere ich mir auf den Geräten #Linux, was ich eh schon mit meinen alten #apple Rechnern gemacht habe.

Some really neat tricks here in this Shell Tricks blog post by https://burningboard.net/@Larvitz -- thanks Larvitz!

I knew of most of them, but am glad to have now learned of:

1. "fc" to edit the previous command in your editor of choice
2. "**" (globstar) for recursive searching instead of needing to use find (or ls -R)
3. That "esc-." is repeatable to go back further than just the previous command's last arg. I use that all the time, but never thought to hit it more than once!

Recursion usually scares me a bit, but it worked out nicely here:

#convert "cx"-style Esperanto notation to native accents (ĉ)
function eaccent {
    if [[ ${1:-} ]]; then
        echo "$*" |eaccent
    else
        sed 's/cx/ĉ/g; s/gx/ĝ/g; s/hx/ĥ/g; s/jx/ĵ/g; s/sx/ŝ/g; s/ux/ŭ/g; s/C[xX]/Ĉ/g; s/G[xX]/Ĝ/g; s/H[xX]/Ĥ/g; s/J[xX]/Ĵ/g; s/S[xX]/Ŝ/g; s/U[xX]/Ŭ/g'
    fi
}

🐢💤 Behold the revolutionary art of making Git diffs more complex than assembling IKEA furniture! All you need is #Delta, #fzf, a sprinkle of shell scripting, and the willingness to never see the sunlight again. Truly, the pinnacle of productivity hacks for those with too much time on their hands! 🙄🔧

Awesome Git Diffs with Delta, fzf and a Little Shell Scripting — Nick Janetakis

Spotting differences in code is an important part of what we do, Delta is by far the best CLI diff tool I ever used.

With regular access to linux for not just work stuff, I’m trying to do things with media files to work appropriately with Jellyfin and ffmpeg is the go to. Not wanting to do everything by hand, I turn to scripts. I found a lovely script, but it’s set up to be manually edited or limited to working from specific directories and I want to be more flexible.

So now I must learn to go beyond the basics (I’ve already done input prompts): working with and validating arguments.

I made my little sample script to use as reference because relying on Internet searches these days to find obscure answers (or reading dry documentation that doesn’t immediately cover what I’m trying to do) just doesn’t cut it. 😅

Oops. Got distracted with figuring out how I want the emoji picker to work. Where was I…

Ah, yes. I’m leveling up my bash scripting skills.

I got annoyed at having to know how many lines I want to `head` or `tail`, and having to write the same stuff over and over again using `cat -n` / `grep` (or even worse an awk script) to figure them out on the fly, so ... two new scripts, `ignore-after` and `ignore-up-to` which are basically content-based versions of `head` and `tail`.

You're welcome.

Here's a little puzzle for you. Can you figure out the purpose of this one-off shell script I just wrote?
If you post an answer put it behind a CW so you don't spoil it for others!
