This is an example from http://www.linux-user.de/ausgabe/2001/07/030-split/split.html:

Put together files with:
1

I am glad that I could gain experience in a lot of CMS-Systems, Open Source CMS like Typo3 and Joomla as well as Licence CMS for example InterRed. Now I will come to my favorite Open-Source CMS, Typo3!
What if you like to create a “previous” – “next” navigation with typo3? Have a look at the following code:

| lib.nav-referenzen = COA
lib.nav-referenzen {
10 = HMENU
10 {
entryLevel = 3
special = browse
special {
items = prev
items.prevnextToSection = 1
}
1 = TMENU
1 {
NO {
doNotLinkIt = 1
stdWrap.cObject = COA
stdWrap.cObject {
10 = TEXT
10 {
field = title
typolink {
parameter.field = uid
returnLast = url
}
wrap = <a title="{field:title}" href="|"></a>&nbsp;&nbsp;
insertData = 1
}
}
}
}
}
20 < .10
20 {
special.items = next
1.NO.stdWrap.cObject.10.wrap = &nbsp;&nbsp;<a title="{field:title}" href="|">next &raquo;</a>
}
} |
Now put this code into your template:
with automaketemplate e.g: subparts.bottom < lib.nav-referenzen
with templavoila e.g.: lib.prevnextnavigation < lib.nav-referenzen
subparts.bottom and lib.prevnextnavigation are only sample object names. Replace them with your own subpartname or templavoila lib name.

It is not possible in Outlook to send an email blind carbon copy to a special email address automatically. E.g. you would like to send a copy of each email you send to watcher@mymail.com automatically.
A small Visual Basic Script can do the job. Open Outlook 2007 and press Alt+F11 for the Visual Basic Editor and put there the following code:

Here is another version where you can filter the recipients and send mails to a special email address. E.g. you would like to send a bcc automatically to company1@mymail.com if you send mails to *@company1.com and to company2@mymail.com if you send mails to *@company2.com:

To replace a string in all files inside a folder you can create a bash file:
Put inside this file:
1
2
3
4
5
6
| #!/bin/bash
for file in $(ls -1);
do
sed 's/me/you/g' $file > /tmp/dummy.txt;
mv /tmp/dummy.txt $file;
done |
Save it and make it executeable (chmod 777 replace.sh)
In this case the string “me” will be replace with “you” in all files of the actual folder and the files will be overridden.
Another example
Your want to replace the tag <b> with <strong> in all files inside a special folder. Further you want to backup the original files with suffix .old and the new files will be overridden.
Simply type on the console:
1
2
3
4
5
| for file in $(ls -1);
do
mv $file $file.old
sed 's/<b>/<strong>/g' $file.old > $file;
done |
You can modify the script(s). Maybe by adding parameters etc.
Another option is to use sed with -i command or direct editing:
1
2
3
4
| for file in $(ls -1);
do
sed -i 's/text_to_replace/text_replacement/g' $file
done |

People often underestimate the usefulness of the linux-command screen.
What does screen do? Screen creates a terminal session for the actual user.
Type:
to create a terminal session.
Or type:
1
| screen -S <sessionname> |
where <sessionname> should be replaced with your own name.
Create a new window:
which means (Press Control and a together and after that press c)
Now we created a second window. To list all created windows in the actual session type:
Germans have to press Shift+2 for “.
Now the two created windows will be shown:
Just choose one Window and press enter.
To quit your actual work an detach the session:
To list all active sessions:
You should see a similar picture like the following:
Here you can see the name of the session: 1597.stefan
To restore the session simply type:
Maybe you have to type the complete id with 1597.stefan if there exist another session with the same name.

When switching from Mac to Linux and vice versa, I always have to think a bit about how to use the command top and sort by CPU.
With Linux it is
top
and then press
shift+p
Mac:
top -o cpu
I hope I can remember this

The situation is as follows. You want to search recursive for a text pattern inside of each files in the directory /var/www/vhosts. Take e.g. the pattern ‘DataStructure’.
Normally you would think about the find-command and executing another command but grep itself can do the job.
grep -RHl -e ‘DataStructure’ /srv/www/vhosts
This command lists all filenames containing the text ‘DataStructure’

To list all open connections on the actual linux or mac just type the following:
lsof -i
For faster lookup without replacing IP through DNS-lookup:
lsof -i -n
Try also with root-permission for more files:
sudo lsof -i -n
Now you can easily spot programs connecting to the internet an dump the tcp-data with tcpdump.
For example dumping data from tcp-port 80 to a file called test.pcap:
tcpdump -w test.pcap tcp port 80
Now show the file:
tcpdump -nnr test.pcap
or
tcpdump -ttttnnr test.pcap
for timestamp information
