Editing binary files   Edit Use the  -b  option to set binary mode before editing a binary file, for example: vim -b myfile.bin If wanted, you can display nonprintable characters in hex, and you can wrap lines: :setlocal display=uhex :setlocal wrap In normal mode, type  g  then Ctrl-G to display the byte number at the cursor, or type a byte number then  go  to jump to that byte (for example,  123go  will jump to byte number 123). The first byte in the file has byte number 1. The following command replaces the buffer with a hex dump: :%!xxd You can edit the hex bytes, then convert the file back to binary with the command: :%!xxd -r The above command reverses the hex dump by converting the hex bytes to binary (the printable text in the right column is ignored). http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Hex_dump

By character value   Edit It is also possible to enter any character (which can be displayed in your current 'encoding'), even a character for which no digraph is defined, if you know the character value, as follows (where ^V means "hit Ctrl-V, except if you use Ctrl-V to paste, in which case you should hit Ctrl-Q instead): By decimal value:  ^Vnnn  (with 000 <= nnn <= 255) By octal value:  ^VOnnn  or  ^Vonnn  (with 000 <= nnn <= 377) By hex value:  ^VXnn  or  ^Vxnn  (with 00 <= nn <= FF) By hex value for BMP Unicode codepoints:  ^Vunnnn  (with 0000 <= nnnn <= FFFF) By hex value for any Unicode codepoint:  ^VUnnnnnnnn  (with 00000000 <= nnnnnnnn <= 7FFFFFFF) http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Entering_special_characters

A guide to searching for anything in Vi / Vim, super complete and concise http://vimdoc.sourceforge.net/htmldoc/pattern.html

This doc literally has every vi command! http://vimdoc.sourceforge.net/htmldoc/quickref.html

You search for a decimal character with the normal search /\%d{decimal number} E.g search for a space character /\%d32 To tell what a character is in command mode type :ga http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Searching

To search with a hex value is a normal vi search with  /\%x{hex number} E.g. search for a space /\%x20 To tell what a character is in command mode type :ga http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Searching

Double spacing: :%s/$/{ctrl-V}{CR}/g This command applies an extra carriage return at the end of all lines Strip blanks at end of line: :%s/{TAB}*$// Delete all lines beginning with or matching a pattern: :1,$ /^#/d Delete all (first to last line: 1,$ or g) comments lines in file. Delete all lines beginning (^) with "#" (specify text pattern). :g/#/d Delete all lines (g) containing comments (comments follow "#") in file. Delete all lines containing "#". :g!/^#/d Delete all lines except (g! or v) comment lines beginning (^) with "#". Strip DOS ctrl-M's: :1,$ s/{ctrl-V}{ctrl-M}//

Textmate Ruby Macro - Remove Line Numbers #!/usr/bin/env ruby -wKU STDIN.readlines.each {|e| print e.gsub(/\A\d+/,"")  } #Set Save "Nothing" #Set Input "Selected Text" or "Character" # and #Set Output "Replace Selected Text"

bash case statement fall through Short answer is that there isn't a fall through. Here is an example from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switch_statement . Most people just want a or functionality so here is how you achieve that. case $n in 0 ) echo 'You typed 0.' ;; 1 | 9 ) echo " $n is a perfect square." ;; 3 | 5 | 7 ) echo " $n is a prime number." ;; 4 ) echo " $n is a perfect square. $n is an even number" ;; 2 | 6 | 8 ) echo " $n is an even number." ;; * ) echo 'Only single-digit numbers are allowed.' ;; esac

The short answer is sleep(0.0001) for a millisecond. sleep(0.0001) The details are that it's not that simple. Depending on your platform(OS) and details on thread sleeping, which I won't go into. When you get under a second and definitely under a tenth of a second accuracy really goes down the tubes. On some computers you won't see it work on less than a second. This is a complaint on some message boards. If you need much better accuracy look into realtime linux as your OS.

Bash move forward or backward a word on the command line shortcut keys Will move you forward one word on the command line ESC f Will move you backward one word on the command line ESC b

Google scribe created run on sentence by typing in the word autocomplete then hitting enter till it stopped and this is the sentence I got. autocomplete in their own right and do not want to be related to their particular field or industry in which they are attached to their respective owners and are strictly for viewing and printing of these books are nothing but another form of therapy for these patients is not known whether these are the only ones. http://scribe.googlelabs.com/

Here are two example from the article below  Slaying dragons with git, bash, and ruby a on pre-commit hook for git. First setup your hook that will run before you commit. chmod +x .git/hooks/pre-commit Second test out a test for ruby debugger code left, when it should be removed #!/usr/bin/env ruby if `grep -rls "require 'ruby-debug'; debugger" *` != "" puts "You twit, you've left a debugger in!" exit(1) end Now whenever I try to commit code, it will first run a recursive  grep  over the codebase to ensure I’ve not left my debug statement in (I can be sure it always looks like “require ‘ruby-debug’; debugger” as I have it bound to a shortcut). Another example included Stopping an incomplete merge There’s been occasions where a particularly large rebase or merge creates a lot of conflicts in a file, and one of those has snuck through and rather than being fixed the inline diff has actually been committed. Time to add another check t...

This is a clever technique if some txt and relative size of the file is known grep -a -B 25 -A 100 'some string in the file' /dev/sda1 > results.txt Here’s what the command does: grep searches through a file and prints out all the lines that match some pattern. Here, the pattern is some string that is known to be in the deleted file. The more specific this string can be, the better. The file being searched by grep (/dev/sda1) is the partition of the hard drive the deleted file used to reside in. The “-a” flag tells grep to treat the hard drive partition, which is actually a binary file, as text. Since recovering the entire file would be nice instead of just the lines that are already known, context control is used. The flags “-B 25 -A 100” tell grep to print out 25 lines before a match and 100 lines after a match. Be conservative with estimates on these numbers to ensure the entire file is included (when in doubt, guess bigger numbers). Excess data is easy to trim out of res...

I hope I get to make it to all these places but NY and AZ look the prettiest to me Peekamoose Blue Hole, Sundown, NY If this place doesn’t remind you of old Mountain Dew ads, you’re probably part of the Twilight generation. You know the ones—groups of beautiful young people playing in the summer sun, jumping into water, popping open a can of the electric yellow soda, while a singer reminds us that “being cool is a state of mind.” In the middle of a Catskills forest, Rondout Creek pours through a rock gap to create a deep swimming hole worthy of such rowdy camaraderie. Think jackknifes and cannonballs. The I-live-for-summer rope swing dangles over the deepest end and practically begs to be used. To find the Peekamoose Blue Hole (and your inner Brad Pitt), follow New York Route 28A to West Shoken. Carlon Falls , Yosemite National Park, CA En route to Hetch Hetchy, pull off winding Evergreen Road at the South Fork Tuolumne River for a mostly flat, two-mile hike to this rare year-round wa...

How to hire a programmer. I read this article and said great this is exactly what I tell people with a twist. Basically the steps are: Simplify your idea to smallest possible version of it. Simplify some more Summarize this idea using lots of verbs and nouns, also imagine describing things if I click A then B happens. Break down this simple project into Deliverables or Milestones. THE TWIST HIre multiple developers to complete the first Milestone. Pick the best developer to complete the rest of the Milestones. Original

I am a little torn, because I don't write enough to have multiple blogs worth of content. Additionally people don't like to follow blogs that are all over the map. Basically my content is a little too diverse(lately very tech heavy) to keep an audiences attention. What to do what to do.... Not really sure about that one. I have followed a few of my friend blogs as of late ... they are pretty good. Writing has never been a strength of mine, but a skill that I admire in people none the less. I really want to improve my writing. Did you know that Benjamin Franklin had a very interesting technique growing up when he discovered his writing was poor. He would read a famous essay or article by a master writing, summarize it's main points. They try and rewrite the article making the same points. Then afterward would do a comparison of the two. This helped make Benjamin Franklin become the great writer he was. I might try doing that one day if I can find the time. Friends...
