Verify all the paths in the PATH directory

2010-06-08 1 min read Bash Learning Linux

Here is the command to test that all the directories in your path actually exist.

(<a class="zem_slink freebase/en/internal_field_separator" title="Internal field separator" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internal_field_separator">IFS=:;for p in $PATH; do test -d $p || echo $p; done)

And the explanation :

Set the IFS to ”:”

now we loop through the PATH variable

and test all the directories with ”test -d”

Here is another version without IFS:

for i in ${PATH//:/ };do test -d $i || echo $i;done

bash completion not working on Fedora

2010-06-06 1 min read Bash Fedora Linux

I had bash completion installed and after that I had made huge changes to my bashrc and also installed bashstyle. After this the bash-completion stopped working.

I had to spend a lot of time to figure out that the easiest solution was to source the bash-completion again in the end. 🙂

colors in bash -- script to display all the possible colors.

2010-06-06 3 min read Bash Fedora Linux

If you wanted to have colors in the bash output (including the colors in PS1-4), don’t you keep wondering how the color code would look on the terminal. So, I wrote this small script to show the complete color codes. This is how the output would look:

$\"Bash$

And here is the script:

let a cow tell you your fortune

2010-06-03 1 min read Bash Linux

Here\’s something that I saw on commandlinefu yesterday. That sent me thinking about some command to have the cow file picked randomly 🙂 So, here\’s the original command from the commandlinefu:

    <td>
      <div class="text codecolorer">
        $ fortune | <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/cowsay" title="Cowsay" rel="homepage" href="http://www.nog.net/%7Etony/warez/cowsay.shtml">cowsay</a> -f tux
      </div>
    </td>
  </tr>
