+ + V/C for copying/pasting in the terminal w/o using mouse. This should definitely be in there!

See, even I can learn something. Doesn't seem to work on xterm though, the primary terminal I use :/

I usually use ”shift + insert” for ”paste” to at least get rid of the mouse for paste functions. I also use it as I have seen and done so many bad ”paste” especially if you copy paste between different tabs, applications. As ”double click” which highlights and copies. 😩🙃

Works fine with iterm2 on macOS too. Been using that for years.

To repeat the last command, one can type "!!" So in the event one forgets sudo on say, "apt update", (which l frequently do) one can type "sudo !!" and it will work without the fingers leaving home row.

EM had that one on an earlier video. Very useful.

This was pretty useful. I'm a self-taught linux user, so there were a couple things in here I didn't know! Awesome vid.

don't know why 'ls' just isn't 'list' lol... thank you. i've learned quite a bit.

If you're downloading something on the terminal and it asks you Y/n you don't have to type y just hit enter. Basic but easier.

14:50 or you could write "sudo !!" and it will put sudo in front of the last command you typed in.

[ALT] + . Copies the last argument from a previous command. E.g. cp myfile really-long-path then cd [ALT] . Will copy in the really-long-path. Changed the way I use Linux 🙃

what about shift-insert to paste the clipboard? does that work in the linux GUI?

@georgeprout42 Жыл бұрын

Ctrl-C in *nix predates the windows shortcuts, but hold shift+Ctrl-C or shift+Ctrl+V work as you'd expect.

What are your thoughts on the recent Atom editor news? Switching? To what? Maybe vim??

@EngineerMan Жыл бұрын

My plan is to stick with Atom even after it's discontinued until things that I need start to break, then I'm not sure. I guess vs code, I hear it's what all the cool kids use.

Please more videos on Linux. Watching your videos I switched from Windows to Linux around 4 years ago!!

@zeocamo Жыл бұрын

this was great, but for 1 thing, it is not good to show people that is starting out sudo -s because then they do that always and get problems, it would be a lot better to so normal sudo as a prefix, so they learn to use the system first, you don't need to know about su/sudo -s or other ways to switch user.

In practice, root will always be password protected to prevent things like this. EM didn't use a root password here because he's running in a Docker and has nothing to lose.
