File this under #shell #functions I should have written years ago:
function grepc {
#Do a grep -c, but skipping files with no results
grep -c "$@" |grep -v ':0$'
}
Amin, minor deity of the legume realmOh, didn't know about -c. I usually just pipe to wc -l I guess.
-c, -l, -h, -H, and -q are my favorite #grep flags. :D
Huh, that almost became a [Marcel Duchamp] reference. 😅
I just use -v and -E

thedoctor...and bash instead of zsh
...and grep/awk/sed instead of jq
...and firefox instead of chrome
...and the fediverse instead of facebook
Face it... I'm an unpopular-opinion neckbeard level boss. XD

@thedoctor @rl_dane @amin @mirabilos At least bash and zsh is comparable to grep ripgrep, as zsh is just a strictly better bash ;)

kabel42@kabel42 @mirabilos @rl_dane @amin @thedoctor No, it's absolutely not fun, first of all it breaks all scripts. They break all the shortcuts that I use all the time in interactive sessions, it's slow, and if you want to configure it, guess how you configure a command line tool it boots up a web server where you configure it... the whole thing is utterly ridiculous.
@mirabilos @rl_dane @amin @thedoctor @sotolf you probably have some browser installed anyway so why not use it. And you can rewrite all your scripts in a new, more sane, language that is not based on some legacy tech.

ksh got started in... 1983? That's not legacy? XD
@kabel42 @sotolf @rl_dane @thedoctor @amin not in the sense if the word that is commonly used/understood contemporarily, no
@mirabilos @sotolf @rl_dane @thedoctor @amin If you are refering to the original version, the Wikipedia definition doesn't feel that off: "In computing, a legacy system is an old method, technology, computer system, or application program, "of, relating to, or being a previous or outdated computer system",[1] yet still in use." -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legacy_system
@kabel42 @sotolf @rl_dane @thedoctor @amin that’s not how the word is used these days. “legacy” and “modern” are fighting words, at this time. 😾
@mirabilos @sotolf @rl_dane @thedoctor @amin matches my understanding and use of the word 🤷
Alternatively, something that used to be popular but has been replaced with something newer in many applications but remain in some use cases

Probably because people are addicted to the breakneck pace of "progress," novelty, and chasing their tails.
Maybe I'll spin up a laptop that only runs Unix v4 in a VM to try to spin the earth a tiny bit in the other direction. 😆
