useful linux commands PDF Print E-mail
Written by Administrator

Here is a list of linux commands that help me out.
Maybe they will get you going too.

Count files recursively

find . -not -type d | wc -l

Command line for loop

for i in `seq 6 15`; do echo "showing $i"; done

note: for bsd use the jot command
for i in `jot 10000 1 10000`; do echo $i; done

kill multiple processes

for i in `ps axw |grep postExports |cut -f1 -d '?' |tr -d ' '`; do kill -9 $i; done

Rename Multiple Files in linux

rename .src .c *

Find files over certain size in linux

This one seems to work better: find / -size +200000k -ls


Find and Replace recursively in multiple files


find ./ -type f -exec sed -i 's/tofind/replacewith/' {} ;

Find and remove files/directory


Removes subversion directories
find . -name .svn* -exec sudo rm -Rf {} ;

rm argument list to long


find . -name '*.log' -print0 | xargs -n1000 -0 rm

Linux log out user by killing


skill -KILL -u auser

Rename multiple files with perl


for i in *.JPG; do mv "$i" "${i/.JPG}".jpg; done

Unsort unix file command


perl -wne 'printf "%016.0f%s", rand 2**53, $_' < /tmp/ips.txt | sort | cut -b17- > /tmp/ips.txt
