Let’s talk about some cook tips with the terminal. These tips are not directly related to bash itself but very useful tips
Ctrl+L will clear the screen but it does not clear the buffer. If you scroll up, you get to see the previously executed command result.
If you do Ctrl+A, the cursor will move to the beginning of the line. You can accomplish the same thing with Home button.
Ctrl+Right Arrow lets you move the cursor forward by a word. Ctrl+Left Arrow lets you move the cursor backward by a word.
Alt+U capitalizes all the letters after the cursor. Alt+L lowers all the letters after the cursor.
Ctrl+S stops output of the screen and Ctrl+Q resumes it.
!! repeats the last command.
Alt+D removes the word right after the cursor. Ctrl+K removes everything after the cursor. Ctrl+U removes everything before the cursor.
These tips and tricks should make your bash life a little more productive. 🙂
