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

LISTEN, I've used grep/awk/sed for very nearly a quarter century, and I find the syntax of jq bewildering, so 😝
mirabilos@amin @rl_dane @thedoctor @sotolf jq is absolutely bewildering, especially the insistence on filtering (splitting the input stream is so hard and counter-intuitive), but it’s an ok tool if you have JSON. Or YAML, which I [convert (user=pass public)] to JSON anywwy.
xmlstarlet is lovely!
@mirabilos @amin @thedoctor @sotolf
Is it possible to convert JSON to XML and then use xmlstarlet? 😄
