@scottalanmiller Sounds solid. The speed difference is dramatic. Thanks.

@scottalanmiller

But "respecting it" means nothing.

In WIndows, pressing a key for a function only does that function, or nothing.

I am taking about, for example, in top where

m

and

M

do two totally different things.

Right, an in WIndows it always does two different things. If you keep using it in places where both do nothing, you can make ANYTHING into "not sensitive". But that logic, nearly every letter on the keyboard does the same thing - nothing. So you just told me that WIndows isn't "key sensitive". See why that makes no sense?

Good read, thanks.

@flabbergastedFiltch said in Linux: Finding Files:

Yea, Scott's reply led me to:

find . -name "*\ " -print

Not a big leap.

Now I'm all the way down the rabbit hole of xargs, grep, and perhaps sed (?)

Using FreeBSD on EMC Isilon.

I have to do this a lot, but the creative way users name files is ever changing:
filename.
filename. [filename dot space]
file*name

Here's a sample of a real directory:

One or Two files (even 10) and I'd use mv to rename the files and remove the space or period or add extension, etc... This list represents just one folder out of a few hundred that have some gremlin preventing Windows NT Backup (don't ask) from taking a backup and deleting the originals.

Thanks for the reply and nudge. Now back to it after I change my Job Description on Linkedin to "Frustrated wannabe Software Developer".

As much as I like giant one liners, the best tool for this would be rename.

To remove a period just do

find . -type f -exec rename "." "" {} \;

You don't technically need to use find, but if the files span multiple directories it's easier.

Ya with a preallocated qcow2 I can get pretty close to raw speeds. No one is going to notice 10MB/s or even 20 in normal settings.

/proc/version usually has pertinent information across most systems.

Edit: I looked closer. It's just the OS name (RHEL/Ubuntu) and kernel version. Never mind.

That was in the original article.

@JJoyner1985 said in UNIX: What Is a Tarball:

So, do you think the reason I am seeing a lot more gzip in use with tarballs is due to the familiarity of gzip and the negligible difference in the compression between it and bzip2? Basically, bzip2 doesn't make enough of an improvement with sufficient regularity to entice people to move away from gzip, or is there some other benefit to gzip that my training material hasn't covered?

That's correct. The difference between the two is generally small enough that people are not concerned. And lots of systems still don't have bzip2 installed by default so if you want scripts or whatever to work universally you often use gzip because you know that it is always there and predictable.

While my main drive wasn't to get the rPi to learn some basic programming, I am hoping that it will help 'encourage' it.

I am planning to load Linux on my laptop as the primary, and take it from there. But I also am pushing myself to use the CLI more in the rPi than before..
