scripts VS bat

I made this at one point to counter that anti-Linux FUD; I still maintain it but not as religiously -- it's become too polarised and no one on that sub is logical once they've made up their minds (which perhaps applies to me also, but shrug !)

try https://github.com/xkcd386at/scripts/blob/master/restic-find-fzf if this interests you. Like a lot of my tools, this one also uses the amazing fzf program to help you select files or directories to extract

for people who want this kind of combination but still have muscle memory for head and tail arguments, try this: https://github.com/xkcd386at/scripts/blob/master/ht

if someone wants a pure bash+fzf+ripgrep solution with slightly different behaviour, take a look at https://github.com/xkcd386at/scripts/blob/master/vgc

So... https://github.com/xkcd386at/scripts/blob/master/fclone (and yes the program name is probably even less imaginative than rfync -- suggestions welcome)

I have a script that identifies exact duplicate directories; see https://github.com/xkcd386at/scripts/blob/master/dirdups

https://github.com/xkcd386at/scripts/blob/master/usff for the win

as for session token stealing, on Linux at least I have long advocated using multiple userids to run browsers -- I log on to gmail in a user called x3-gm, to amazon in a user called x3-amz, and so on. All simultaneously and without having to logoff/logon. https://github.com/xkcd386at/scripts/blob/master/usff has the details, but that's not important; the main idea is to not use the default locations for any important logged in site. Sure there is some pain in manually moving files between userids (e.g., move statement from bank userid to gmail userid to send to my accountant), but it's not hard and some judicious use of /tmp or similar can help a lot

That’s the same as bat:[1] one of the features is syntax highlighting. Kind of unexpected to find a concatenation program… which also does that.

Good find, thanks! I'll check if I prefer it to moar.

As for bat, according to https://github.com/sharkdp/bat#using-bat-on-windows, the Chocolatey package simply installs `less` alongside `bat`. Seems like a good idea, but I haven't tried it.

Try bat (it’s like cat but better) https://github.com/sharkdp/bat

For this reason I have a zsh function in my .zshrc with bat (which pages by default, if it's longer than your console height):
