Humanism.sh
These commands attempt to introduce some humanism to POSIX users by providing sensible defaults to basic commands and changing the basic functionality of some so as to free neurons for use on something other than remembering command flags. This effort ignores with intent the response "it only takes you one more second to do it the normal way."
Examples: cd use typically includes only one argument: a directory. With
that assumption this seems absurd:
cd ./to\ some\ directory. And history and ps are
rarely used without grep. find is typically used to fuzzy search for a
file name so why isn't -iname "*$@*" the default?
Some commands herein alter workflow more intrusively. The c command,
intended to replace cd, will search forward and backward looking for a directory
that matches any part of the argument filter. Though subtle this change makes
moving through the file systems similar to using command launchers found in
modern OS UI's (cmd+space osx, alt+F2 ubuntu). The ap command unifies
package searching, installation and information making finding needed
dependencies or files easier. sshrc can be used to carry humanism
(inspired by Russen91's sshrc).
alias ssh=sshrc and take it wherever you go.
Installation
To load all commands for each new terminal shell (bash/zsh/sh compatible) source the file in your profile or bashrc:
source humanism.sh
Alternatively you can load commands selectively source humanism.sh <cmd>
or execute humanism.sh help to see list of commands.
You are likely use ap and in some cases dbg via sudo/root so link these
scripts into a PATH'ed bin:
sudo ln -s <humanism.sh_path>/dbg /usr/local/bin
sudo ln -s <humanism.sh_path>/ap.<version> /usr/local/bin
Commands have been tested on OSX, Ubuntu and FreeBSD and various virtual hosts
and embedded devices. If you find errors please execute the dependency test
script sh -x test/requirements.sh and submit an issue on github.
Use
c (cd)
c go to last dir
c <FiLteR> go to path, if not in cwd search forward and backward for
*FiLtEr* in tree
Details:
c <fIlTeR> go to path or find and goto filter
1. if filter is path, goto
2. if filter is name in tag db, goto
3. if filter found under cwd, goto
4. if filter found above cwd, goto
c <fIlTeR> <fIlTeR> filter cascading. find filter, then Nth filter under it
c <tag> <tag> tag cascading
c <tag> <fIlTeR> combined. many tags, one filter
l <tag> <fIlTeR> ls that adheres to all of the above
Managing Tags:
Tags get created either manually using these commands or automatically when a
c fIlTeR is found.
cc list tags
cc <tag> add/remove/rename <tag> for pwd
prompt to delete if <tag> exists
cc d <tag>
cc del <tag> explicit delete
To disable auto tagging set HUMANISM_C_TAG_AUTO=0 before sourcing humanism.sh
find
find <filter> find *FiLtEr* anywhere under cwd
find <path> <filter> find *FiLtEr* anywhere under path
find $1 $2 $3 ... pass through to normal find
history
history list
history <filter> greped history
ps
ps list
ps <filter> filtered
ps <filter> | killps [-SIG] kill procs
log
Used to create a record of work by appending commands and messages to ./run.sh from bash history.
log show recent commands and select which are recorded
log some message append echo message to run.sh
log <N> append Nth cmd from last. e.g. ``log 1`` adds last cmd
ap
Unify apt-get, apt-cache and dpkg on Linux, homebrew on OSX or pkgng on Freebsd. Makes searching for needed files or packages a bit easier.
install)
Install package
reinstall)
Re-install package
remove)
Uninstall and purge of all deps no longer required
updatesecurity)
Install security updates
search)
Show packages available or already installed
ownerof)
Show package for file
ineed)
Show packages that would provide a file if installed
ineedbadly)
Show any package that contains string
info)
information about package
list)
show files installed by package
*)
pass through any other command on to apt-get
dbg
Unify strace|dtruss and lsof.
trace)
strace all child processes of supplied command, pid or proc name
openfiles)
Show open files of an already running processes and its children, by name
fileprocs)
Show pid's touching file
libtree)
using strings alone give .so dependency for file
use: dbg libtree <TARGET> [ignorelibs]
ie: dbg libtree <TARGET> [ld.so.1 libc.so libpthread.so.0 libc.so.6]
canexe)
pick an executable and it's dependencies.
e.g. grab arm executables from one firmware and use on another
tries to determine libs with ldd first, then dbg libtree
use: dbg canexe <TARGET> [ignorelibs]
ie: dbg canexe <TARGET> [ld.so.1 libc.so libpthread.so.0 libc.so.6]
demanglecpp)
pipe strings into c++filt to demangle names
sshrc
carry all of the above commands with you. Will source myrc file from
humanism.sh base directory, if it exists. Personally I've set alias ssh=sshrc
in myrc so that I don't forget to carry this with me.
