What's this?



commandlinefu.com is the place to record those command-line gems that you return to again

and again.



Delete that bloated snippets file you've been using and share your personal repository with the

world. That way others can gain from your CLI wisdom and you from theirs too. All commands

can be commented on, discussed and voted up or down.







If you have a new feature suggestion or find a bug, please get in touch via

http://commandlinefu.uservoice.com/



Get involved!



You can sign-in using OpenID credentials, or register a traditional username and password.

or

Sign in Register



First-time OpenID users will be automatically assigned a username which can be changed after

signing in.

Stay in the loop…



Follow the Tweets.







Every new command is wrapped in a tweet and posted to Twitter. Following the stream is

a great way of staying abreast of the latest commands. For the more discerning, there are

Twitter accounts for commands that get a minimum of 3 and 10 votes - that way only the

great commands get tweeted.

Subscribe to the feeds.

Use your favourite RSS aggregator to stay in touch with the latest commands. There are

feeds mirroring the 3 Twitter streams as well as for virtually every other subset (users,

tags, functions,…):



Subscribe to the feed for:



 » all commands

 » commands with 3 up-votes (commandlinefu3)
