Day 695
Multiple monitors / productivity idea
If I have a laptop and two external monitors, put the ‘distracting’ things on the laptop monitor and close the laptop. Open it when I’m officially doing a pause.
My aliases for grep and history
I shouldn’t forget that I have g aliased to grep, along with h to history | grep.
Just tried this and it works:
h vim | g http
zsh expand all aliases; zsh keybindings; zsh show all files in directory
Added this 1 to ./zshrc:
expand-aliases() {
unset 'functions[_expand-aliases]'
functions[_expand-aliases]=$BUFFER
(($+functions[_expand-aliases])) &&
BUFFER=${functions[_expand-aliases]#$'\t'} &&
CURSOR=$#BUFFER
}
zle -N expand-aliases
bindkey '^E' expand-aliases
^E is <C-e>. Gets run anytime I use it, without connection to the written text. Neat.
Also found this in ./.zshrc:
# Usage:
# In the middle of the command line:
# (command being typed)<TAB>(resume typing)
#
# At the beginning of the command line:
# <SPACE><TAB>
# <SPACE><SPACE><TAB>
#
# Notes:
# This does not affect other completions
# If you want 'cd ' or './' to be prepended, write in your .zshrc 'export TAB_LIST_FILES_PREFIX'
# I recommend to complement this with push-line-or edit (bindkey '^q' push-line-or-edit)
function tab_list_files

}
zle -N tab_list_files
bindkey '^I' tab_list_files
<C-i> gives a list of files in the directory, and space-space-tab at the beginning of the line too. <C-q> (push-line-or-edit). More about it here: TIL: save half-typed commands in bash and zsh « Serge Gebhardt (sgeb.io) TL;DR remove command currently being edited and paste it at the next Return.
Nel mezzo del deserto posso dire tutto quello che voglio.
