Last week I decided to run a little competition to see your tips related to UNIX and Linux. A massive thank you to all that have participated.

My website is made possible by displaying online advertisements to my visitors. I get it! Ads are annoying but they help keep this website running. It is hard to keep the site running and producing new content when so many people block ads. Please consider donating money to the nixCraft via

supporter using Patreon.
There were total 185 entries. Many entries were nice and I really enjoyed reading all of them. But, there can only be 3 winners (randomly selected):
=> slappinjohn
=> Hunter Perrin
=> Michael
There were many other great entries and I recommend you to check them out in the comments section.
Next month I will announce another small competition. If any one is interested sponsoring or would like give away as a prize in a competition, please contact me.

Hi All,
Typing commands in a ssh session sometimes takes time to see
the result. When you see a mistake, some shortcuts can help you
edit that easily. These are some Keyboard shortcuts in shell
and vi editor. Some of you may find this useful. [ Experienced
users, juz ignore 🙂 ]
Shell
====
ctrl-a Move to beginning of line
ctrl-e Move to end of line
ctrl-k Erase the rest of line from the position of cursor
ctrl-l Clear screen
ctrl-r Incremental search backwards
ctrl-u Erase entire line
alt -d Delete the word following the cursor ( dot works as
delimitter )
alt-b move back word by word
alt-f move forward word by word
