On macOS:

sudo lsof -i -P | grep LISTEN | grep :$PORT

And on Linux:

netstat -pntl | grep $PORT

zenity --info --text="Merge complete. Updated 3 of 10 files."

I have a shell script to add daily recurring tasks, such as “Drink Water” or “Pray Maghreb,” to this file. SimpleTasks expects the file to be at $HOME/Dropbox/todo/todo.txt, and I use a template file, such as template.txt, to populate it. However, as anyone who has used TODO files knows, there are always unfinished tasks; for instance, I don’t always drink my daily allotted amount of water.

So, my evening script moves completed tasks (marked as DONE) to their own file, removes recurring tasks from todo.txt, and repopulates them for a new day. (Note: The code below is not usable as-is; you must define the TODO, DONE, and TEMPLATE file paths correctly.)

TODO=.../todo.txt
DONE=.../$(date +%F)-done.txt
TEMPLATE=.../template.txt

#Move Done to $DONE
grep -wE '^x ' $TODO >> $DONE
sed -i '/^x /d' $TODO

#Delete lines with @Evening, @Morning or @Regular tags from todo
sed -i "/\b\(@Morning|@Evening|@Regular\)\b/d" $TODO
cat $TODO_TEMPLATE >> $TODO

I have configured cron to run this every day at 6 PM. (My “evening” starts earlier than my morning.)

Bir dizindeki tüm dosyalar: ls *

Bulunduğumuz dizin ve tüm alt dizinlerdeki dosyalar: ls **/*

Son iki haftada değiştirilmiş dosyalar: ls **/*(.mw-2)

Boyutu 100 MB’tan büyük olan dosyalar: ls **/*(.Lm+100)

Sadece okunabilir olan dosyalar: ls **/*(.R)

/etc dizininde dünya tarafından yazılabilir olan dosyalar: ls /etc/**/*(.W)

/etc dizininde son bir haftada değiştirilmiş ve dünya tarafından yazılabilir olan dosyalar: ls /etc/**/*(.Wmw-1)

zsh’in sağladığı bu gibi seçeneklerin yanında dosya adını parçalamak da kolay. Örneğin dosyanın uzantıdan önceki kısmını almak için *(:r) yazıyoruz. Dizindeki jpg dosyalarını ImageMagick’in convert programıyla aynı isimli png dosyalarına çevirmek şöyle mümkün:

for f in **/*.jpg(.) ; do
   convert ${f:r}.jpg ${f:r}.png
done

Burada anlatılanları find yoluyla yapmak da mümkün ancak çok daha uzun sürebiliyor. Bilhassa dosya adlarını parçalamak, dönüştürmek gibi işlemleri yaparken zsh’in nimetleri çok. Tek satırlık bir operasyonla çok güçlü bazı dönüşümler yapabilmek mümkün.

Therefore, I decided that a small Bash script using rsync and find would work better. It monitors my entire home directory and backs up recent files.

The following script does exactly that:

#!/bin/bash

if [ "x$1" = "x" ] ; then
    TARGET=/media/augustus/backup-recent-`hostname`
else
    TARGET=$1
fi

PERIOD=15

mkdir -p $TARGET

# Delete files older than $PERIOD days
find $TARGET -ctime +$PERIOD -print -delete

# Copy files newer than $PERIOD under ~. Ignore files under .hg
for d in ~/*/ ; do
    find $d -path '*/.hg/*' -prune -o -type f -ctime -$PERIOD -print  -exec rsync -aRv {} $TARGET/ \;
done

It checks whether a command-line option is provided as the target; otherwise, it sets a default target. /media/augustus/ is an NFS mount in my case, but you can specify any path.

PERIOD is the number of days that the script considers recent. Currently, it backs up files changed in the last 15 days.

The script deletes older files from the backup. Since I use other solutions for long-term storage, I don’t want to keep them here, especially since this script runs via cron every two hours.

Note that the script only checks directories under the home directory, so files located directly in the home directory are not backed up.

It also skips files under .hg directories. You can add more -prune options to the find command to exclude other irrelevant directories from your backup.

I turned off JavaScript (the best JS is dead JS), enabled ad blocking, and customized keyboard shortcuts (changing Ctrl-F to Ctrl-S as in Emacs). It loads noticeably faster, and I can’t even tell how many tabs are open while using other applications.

If you’re using Linux, it’s likely in your distribution’s repository. If you’re on Windows, the Midori home page provides both installable and portable packages.
