Most usefull thing i learned this year was that two exclamation marks repeat the last console entry. You know when you typed a long one liner, hit enter...no permission. Forgot to add sudo. Now instead of typing again..just "sudo !!". Come in more handy then one might think
Yeah, I’ve been using that since the 90s and still use it daily!! If you like that, use !$ for running a command against the last argument of the last command. You’ll use it even more than !!
You can also do ! Before a command you've run previously if you need to do the same again.
Handy if you're prototyping your .bashrc or something
Eg if you ran
$source ~/.bashrc
You can later run
$!source
So before you'd type the whole thing again instead of using up arrow?
@@sevenelven the up arrow just goes up one step in history, you would need to move the cursor to the start of the line and enter sudo if you only forgot to enter it before. Instead you can type sudo !! and the !! gets replaced with whats 1 step up in history. There are many uses for it but i mostly use it for when i forget to put sudo in front of the last command. Or !$ to just use the argument of the last comand.

7:02 fzf
10:26 ffmpeg and tldr
16:05 neovim
19:30 neofetch
21:08 cmatrix
Thx mah dude, you saved me some good time here. Signing off.

Thanks for the timeline, this is awesome.
Thank You mate.
imagemagick
How did I not know about tldr!? It's amazing, I learn better by example so this is perfect, thanks for sharing!
In my mind, i knew somebody must have written a tool like this. The syntax for tar, zip, gunzip and the rest drive me crazy and the documentation is headache inducing. I'll be installing it immediately. Wish it was a default feature tbh.
Personally I'm still a fan of Webmin. Sure some modules aren't worth using, but majority of the basic modules like it's file browser, and status dashboard are definitely worth it's use/installation, while the latest versions feature a revised in-browser terminal emulator that's pretty solid so that when you factor in all the features mentioned, I tend to use these when editing and working with semi-production scripts in Linux, especially on headless systems.
Great video. I've used Linux for decades and didn't know about some of these tools. Thanks for sharing!
This was a good list.
I would like to say that when you get good with it, neovim is way more viable for large projects than you give it credit for. There is a steep learning curve to get there though. When you get there though you will be so much faster and more efficient than any other editor like vscode.
Some other tools you might like
Zoxide - fuzzy find over commonly visited directories.
Zellij - terminal multiplexing like tmux but way better, and very user friendly.
Ripgrep - grep on steroids! 😮
Thanks. This is good stuff. Also, getting more great info/tips from the comments, which YOU inspired! ha--I love it!
It would be useful to mention locate/updatedb together with fuzzy find - running "raw" find on a large disk can be rather slow.
My Favourite terminal tools👇
Zoxide (cd alternative)
Exa (ls alternative)
Fd (find alternative)
Tealdeer (fast tldr fork)
Tmux + Neovim
Bat (cat alternative)
Delta (git difftool)
Glow (markdown viewer)
LF (terminal file manager)
FZF
Htop
🙂 Zsh >>>> Bash
I definitely have to look into tmux
@@NeuralNine Try some other Terminal like Alacritty or Kitty.🙂
@@NeuralNine neofetch | lolcat -t
sl -acdFl
And most of those are in rust :)
The rust version from htop i believe it is called ytop
Zoxide is awesome!
I prefer lsd to exa
Ripgrep is an alternative to grep
Another fun one is "cowsay"
Very useful tutorial! Thanks for sharing!
So good. Been using Linux since 2007 hadn't heard of any but htop. Thanks
I've been using Linux for over 25 years, started with Slackware. I learned from this video and greatly appreciate the knowledge share. Much respect for the way you explain these tools.
I still use vim because I just can't quit it. ;)
can you create a video to talk about window tiling setup? This is really useful but there are many ways out there to config, I like yours.
Wow, the tldr command is a badass. Thanks!
tldr is a good starting point before you actually RTFM, which you should.
if you're talking about ffmpeg, you should mention imagemagick as well, nothing vome close to it for image batch processing.
Man, btop and speedcrunch right out the gate? Subscribed. 🤣
I was able to use most of these tools on my Termux Terminal 😊
9:45 - Forgot about *stty* command, did we, eh? 😀 (You should have typed "stty sane" and your echo and return after linefeed would have been turned back on.)
and if `stty sane` doesn't do it, then `reset`
I cannot remember the last time I had to close and reopen a misconfigured terminal.
Nice tips. Thanks!
Quick and straight forward.. Tanx / Danke
Clear command: when your terminal is full and you want a clean slate. Extra useful when you are giving a presentation or recording a video and you want to switch topics.
Ctrl + l
is there a way to make btop show the network usage associated with each process?
This is fantastic!
Thank you
Love the Flex. Fellow windows users will be quivering in their Berckonstocks. What was the terminal window manager bit you did to get them left/rigth split etc?
neovim should work well with any number of files, perhaps you need to configure some kind of fuzzy search for gf / harpoon? Jump to definition, and so on. Did you see Neovim from 0 to LSP by the primeagen?
Combine neovim with telescope and harpoon and you can definitely use it in bigger projects!
Added neotree with the plugins you mentioned and I find myself going back to VS code less and less
@@AlizJaytay yay now share the files
Shiver me timbers and stiffen me lip. Thar be WHITE WHALES!!!
🥚
@@seventrancegamer4576 install lunarvim it installs all those and then some with sane defaults AND you still can make your own nvim because it makes its own instance under lvim
Or just use vscodium
This is just awesome. Thanks a lot.
Much appreciated. Thank you!
Hi! thanks. That was very educational video. I will take a look at neovim.
Oh, man. That 'tldr' tool is pretty cool
Thanks for sharing , by the way , I'm currently learning C and java as start-up languages using vscode as my default editor , is it necessary for me to explore neovim? One flaw about code is that every time I open a file through yazi, it jumps right into vs ,it's a little disturbing.Neo seems to be smooth
What I’d be interested to see is whether they will warp again when drying. After all wet boards are no good..
If you are often using terminal through ssh I would also consider here "screen". This tool allows you to have multiple "virtual" screens of terminal open simultaneously, and even open a terminal session, close whole ssh connection and then continue this session after re-connecting with ssh, great tool
Or tmux
Tmux is the best provided u have ur custom config with all the plugins and shortcuts u want
tmux - this is the way
tmux is the best
Totally!!
Great Tutorial Thank You
Tldr is awesome! Thank you so much!
I'm liking btop, fzf and tldr; got no time to lirn vim like editor key combinations
Hi, could you tell me the name of the gnome extension you use for tiling? Thank you.
i am using pdfunite for merging pdfs. its great to know
cool video! Thanks
I would include tmux on my list.
Loaded btop right away. Great upgrade over htop.
btop is awesome. thanks dude
I wished I knew about tldr. Thanks man
Now you know :)
I wholeheartedly agree with neovim recommendation.
How is tldr not super mainstream? That should be one of the 1st commands you learn.
I love this man... ^_^ Thank you ...
Already gave it a like at the first section "top" ✌️✌️✌️
Thanks, I'll give nvim a try..
What is the window management tool that you use? I noticed it right at the end 21:45
Think he's running pop_os, it's kind of like a combination mutliplexer/desktop. It's actually very good, it's my os, but I use i3wm rather than the pop_os interface just because I've used it so many years.
22:19 I WAS using arch btw
Anyone have an issue with 'tldr ffmpeg' it says no entry for ffpeg. I'm running in wsl2
btop is awesome tool thanks for that
I am running Ubuntu 23.10, and I am hoping you have an answer for this. I use Teams for class, and I cannot share my screen from the app, everything else on the app works fine. I have read that it is a problem with Wayland. I do not want to use X11. Is there a workaround where I can still use the Teams app? Thank you!
Are you using Wayland or xOrg? Believe has been an ongoing issue with Wayland support, xorg should work fine/is the only work around unless you want to use the web client
bashtop and bpytop are predecessors to btop, from bash to python to binary ;-)
can anyone suggest what could be best alternative of xshell in LINUX
What processor do you have in your machine?
Ryzen 7 5800 I think. Shows on screen when he's demonstrating btop
Thank you
Thank you for this video. Please do more like this.
As for fzf - it searches gorgeously, but not only. It gives back(!) found value. That is why it is possible to use fzf in such a way:
vim $(fzf)
mpv $(fzf)
and even have preview of files on fly while searching with fzf. Here's one from my aliases is .zshrc.
pf='fzf --preview='\''bat --color=always --style=plain {}'\'' --bind k:preview-up,j:preview-down'
(use vim-keys to scroll preview part, if it is longer, than one page)
Insane🔥
"If you have Arch, you can flex even more!" That made me laughing hard! Nice content brother, keep it up! 👍👍👍
Pop OS nice choice
I like bpytop I am told it was written in Python explains the name.
great tools, instantly got btop... perfect. tldr also great, neovim and neofetch i will evaluate 🙂 thanks
not sure the difference between bashtop and btop++ but the same guy makes them and they look relatively the same. Some point i gotta look up the differences lol
wow nice!!!
iotop is must have too
I’ve got a sneaking suspicion this guys got a ponytail. 🤔 Can anybody in the comments confirm or deny?
Instead of vim, how about Lem Editor?
How can we connected?
YESS
MORE TERMINAL APPS
fzf is awesome!
I’m not sure that understand reason not using vim in the big projects. Just use ctags or modern lsp!
doom emacs, could be run with -nw
i'm sure you already know and its just muscle memory but you can clear the screen using Ctrl+L
I like vim, the original one.
btop its a snap not shure i whant to install on my konsole
fancy!
Yes, cmatrix is nice, but have you seen unimatrix?
nvim 0.6 shocked me, you can update to 0.9
Nice? Linux, definitely Linux !
But when you cannot avoid working under windows, there are few solutions. My favorite now is git, because it brings bash and some of the most common and useful CLI commands (find, grep, awk, sed, ...).
Many years ago, I used Cygwin. It's a pain in the a**, it will steal one or two days of your life for installation and configuration. But it so complete you even get an X server too. All other X server running under windows I found were commercial products.
MinGW is in between, or not ? I don't know it very well.
By the way, am I the only one to feel very uncomfortable with the idea of Micro$oft providing a Linux subsystem, including it's own modifications ?
Hmm..... Emacs has them all.... Including vim.
Cmatrix is nice and everything, but I raise you Unimatrix. Give it a try, you won't regret it
Brah needs telescope and harpoon for nvim
How can u split the terminal like that
tmux
@@ouraccount8447 i know tmux could do so, but in the way he shown, seem there are multiple terminal instead of one windows with 3 panes
I believe he is using a tiling feature of PopOS
Here's a Linux Cast video about that: czcams.com/video/8sHhWpDPZ4Q/video.html
@@apina2 I see, thanks.
12:30 Or you could just use ffmpg's easy to use gui
TU!
i want this wallpaper
Use Fastfetch instead of Neofetch. It's Neofetch but fast.
why have you changed your accent lol, this is the first video of yours i’m watching in a year or so and you never sounded like this🤣🤣 great video though
tldr didn't find anything for me. I had to do a tldr --update to refresh cache and then it worked.
btop FTW!
Thx_.
Haven't seen anyone using vimscript for a long time
ye because lua is better. Vimscript works, but lua just feels better
alias cat=batcat
alias ls=exa
broot is better than fzf for finding files
surprised you didn't go with shellgpt :)
rm -rf / is a great one!
Can anyone recommend best bi tool for Ubuntu
You mean a tool that goes both ways?
hello on my channel i connect uart usb rs232 converter to openbox gold mx7 satellite receiver based on gx6505s
hhhh. HHHH! You're telling me, for THREE YEARS, I could've been using tldr instead of man! Excuse me a moment while I scream into a pillow -- both in anger that my past self had to read all those man pages, and in celebration that my future self won't have to (probably).
