mhoyeMy fellow nerds: a question about your personal machines:
What is your favourite quality-of-life tweak you've made to your system?
An alias? A utility, a setting, something in .bashrc or ~/bin?
I'd like to know.
Bodger@mhoye Definitely my aliases. When I discovered those it changed the command line for me.
The best ones are just being able to type the name of one of my machines and have it ssh straight into it. Another one does the ssh but then runs a command to get the temp (it can get hot) and exits.
And I can never remember the command that this alias runs:
alias ns='netstat -alnp --protocol=inet | grep -v CLOSE_WAIT | cut -c-6,21-94 | tail -n +2'
but I use that a lot.
Robin@stevenixon @mhoye oh that one about typing a machine name to ssh into it is fantastic - imma do that right now! The perfect add-on to finally learning how to ssh in using keys rather than a password.
