Here's something interesting - We collected bash history of around 15000 users and listed frequented used commands for fun :) http://www.webminal.org/fulc/ http://www.webminal.org/fulc/
- stkni 11y agoKind of interesting, might be more interesting to see what the other end of the distribution looked like, i.e. the really esoteric commands that people rarely use. We all might learn something from that!
- giis 11y agoWe have common mistakes list http://www.webminal.org/common_mistakes/ http://www.webminal.org/common_mistakes/ but didn't figure-out something like which is the least-used valid command. Good idea, we will dig deeper into their bash_history :)
- unhammer 11y agoI think ".." was "cd .." in dos
- giis 11y agohmm..that's interesting,I never knew that. thanks.
- dagw 11y agoJust checked the cmd prompt on Windows 7 and it isn't like that now at any rate. However cd.. (no space) works.
- adamors 11y ago.. is "cd .." in fish shell
- Retra 11y agoI have ".." as an alias for "cd .." I also have "la" as an alias for "ls -a", and "lsa" as an alias for "ls -lah --color=auto"
- dagw 11y agoSome linux distros (used to?) alias ls -a to la, which would explain why you're seeing it so often.
- giis 11y agoYou are right, quick google search says 'Ubuntu 12.14' has ls,l and la. Will update our page to reflect this.
- dagw 11y agoJust checked and it's still there at least in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.
- zymhan 11y agoAnd some would also alias "ls -la" to ll. Just never the computer I'm using at the time.
- giis 11y agoyes, from time to time, I used to perform 'll' too. I guess some distro comes with that alias by default.
- shubhamjain 11y agoYou should also analyse commands that were run without 'sudo'. For me, using 'apt-get install' without sudo has been the most frequent mistake I have made. Luckily, 'sudo !!' saves me every time.
- giis 11y agothanks for the nice suggestion. Will analyse this type of common mistake too.
- joelthelion 11y agoDoing this on my own bash_history is what prompted me to create autojump.
- giis 11y agoJust started reading about autojump on github,interesting project.
- rkrzr 11y agoThanks so much for creating autojump! autojump + Crl+R are saving me so much time that would be lost searching around. There is just this impedance mismatch between our brains hazy recollection of things and the exactness that is required by computers. I find that fuzzy search combined with stats like most-commonly-used bridge this quite well!
