JoshStrobl hahaha glad I'm not the only one with eopkg derping

Girtablulu and I wrote a simple bashscript with these function for packaging

Can you share this one?

@Harvey why not add a systemd service to start it?

Harvey For your ssh aliases, you can just add them to .ssh/config. Check out this blog post.

Sometimes I'll reboot the server my irc bouncer is on and need to start the service again:

Like what @Justin mentioned, should just use a systemd unit

Justin well get read for some horrible bash scripting

Girtablulu Oh wow the forums butchered it even more

Justin we can blame JoshStrobl

@Justin https://hastebin.com/hiyahufiba

alias admedit="VISUAL=gedit sudoedit"

My personal favorite is:

alias dc='cd ..' # cd backwards

tomocafe If you use zsh you don't even need the cd for that Can just do ..

Bash

alias ls='ls --color=auto --group-directories-first -v'
alias df='df -h -x squashfs' # Thanks popey for this one

.gitconfig

[url "https://github.com/"]
 insteadOf = "gh:"

[alias]
graph = log --graph --pretty=format:'%Cred%h%Creset -%C(yellow)%d%Creset %s %Cgreen(%cr)%Creset %C(cyan)(%an)%Creset' --abbrev-commit --date=relative
grab = "!f() { git clone git@github.com:tryton-vanmeer/$1.git; }; f"

incredible thread.

First time hearing this alias thing.
Now i have one alias:

alias ls="lsd"

Mostly just the following:

alias gradlew="./gradlew"

alias generatePkg="$HOME/.solus/common/Scripts/yauto.py"
alias updatePkg="/usr/share/ypkg/yupdate.py"
alias useUnstable="sudo eopkg ar Solus https://mirrors.rit.edu/solus/packages/unstable/eopkg-index.xml.xz"
alias useShannon="sudo eopkg ar Solus https://mirrors.rit.edu/solus/packages/shannon/eopkg-index.xml.xz"

First one is for Gradle so I can call ./gradlew more easily, and the rest are for packaging/checking unstable for an early look at updates
