Best tool ever invented.
And how would you do THIS in your favourite file manager:
$ sb_mboxtrain.py -g ./ham -s ./spam && cat spam ham | formail -s procmail && rm ham spam && mv unsure aaa && formail -s procmail < aaa && rm aaa # train ham and spam and then reclassify all unsures
$ for f in *.gz; do setfont $f; echo $f; python -c 'for i in range(128, 256): print i, chr(i),'; sleep 2; done # try to see how 8-bit characters look in all fonts
$ cat .bash_history | sort | uniq -c | sort -n | grep topjaklont # find the most frequent used command with 'topjaklont' in it
$ zcat homepage.log.gz | cut -d' ' -f7 -s | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn | grep '/~gerrit/asperger/asperger-[0-9]\.html' | awk '{print $2, $1}' | sed -e 's/\/\~gerrit\/asperger\/asperger-/H/g' | sed -e 's/\.html//g' | /usr/local/bin/piechart -T png > homepage/stats/hoofdstuk.png # My favourite... create a pie-chart of the hits of the chapters of an article I've written
...and so on and so forth

$ h | tail -1000 | sed -e 's/^ *[0-9]* *//g' | sort | uniq -c | sort -n | tail
     13 python
     18 su -
     23 ls
     25 gomail
     26 mutt -f python-list\@python.org
     29 mutt -f gerrit\@nl.linux.org
     30 l
     34 mutt -f unsure
     50 mutt -f fedora-list\@redhat.com
    210 ll

Heh heh :-)

Actually, the shell was one the main reasons for me to switch to Linux.

Gerrit.
