Bash

The most useful bash trick for me is to save what I learn in demonstration scripts so I can $cat it later for a syntax reminder.

ex :
file named : ./follow_jellyfin_system_log

contents :
#!/bin/bash
journalclt -fe -u jellyfin

(some time later) .. wtf args do i pass to journalctl again..

$ls ./script_parent_directory

(list of actions written in human language appear as file names)

$cat ./follow_jellyfin_system_log

me : "oh duh!"

rinse and repeat for every command or shortcut you learn, it forces you to convert the command into a short "noun_verb" format which to me is infinitely more understandable.

that's my workflow. then the meta is deciding how to store your scripts so you don't end up with a polluted home dir. godspeed fellow bashers.
