Hi to all !!
I will also like to receive (if it is possible) those famous Scripts !
:)
:-D To do useful things in the shell, for instance calculating how much space a directory takes or renaming all files in a directory in a specific way etc. Anything useful for daily work. Not anything specific. I saw this script which showed the load of the machine by changing color of the prompt, I tried it but it had several errors which made it unusable. Got anything similar? Any other useful script of this kind would be appreciated.
UNIX Power Tools by Jerry Peek, Tim O'Reilly, and Mike Loukides, second edition August 1997, ISBN 1-56592-260-3.
1000+ pages plus CD-ROM included.
