isoterik extracts a "purified" .iso (UDF) image of a video DVD, devoid of region code. (And CSS encryption.)

When this image is burned to a writable medium, the resulting disc can be played in any DVD player, regardless of region setting -- so you no longer need an extra DVD player just to play imported discs...

A .gitignore magician in your command line. Joe generates .gitignore files from the command line for you.

WOPR is a simple markup language for creating rich terminal reports, presentations and infographics.

Put a report on the web (e.g. gist) and view it via curl:

$> curl -N tty.zone/\[0-2\]\?auto\&cols=$((COLUMNS))

(If you experience firewall issues replace tty.zone with ec2-23-21-64-152.compute-1.amazonaws.com or use a local viewer)

How do I get exit status of process that's piped to another (for e.g. 'netstat -tulpn | grep nginx') on a Linux or Unix-like system using a bash shell?

Dstat is a versatile replacement for vmstat, iostat and ifstat. Dstat overcomes some of the limitations and adds some extra features.

Dstat allows you to view all of your system resources instantly, you can eg. compare disk usage in combination with interrupts from your IDE controller, or compare the network bandwidth numbers directly with the disk throughput (in the same interval).

Dstat also cleverly gives you the most detailed information in columns and clearly indicates in what magnitude and unit the output is displayed. Less confusion, less mistakes, more efficient.

Dstat is unique in letting you aggregate block device throughput for a certain diskset or network bandwidth for a group of interfaces, ie. you can see the throughput for all the block devices that make up a single filesystem or storage system.

Dstat allows its data to be directly written to a CSV file to be imported and used by OpenOffice, Gnumeric or Excel to create graphs.

This site lets you create a muttrc configuration file for the Mutt email program. You specify your preferences in the boxes on the next few pages, and you get a muttrc you can use.

None of the data you enter is stored permanently, but as the Internet is not secure, you should not enter any sensitive information such as passwords. Enter a placeholder instead (such as "password goes here" and replace it in the file you download.

The idea is based on netliberte's sadly-defunct muttrc builder.

Radare is a portable reversing framework that can...

Disassemble (and assemble for) many different architectures
Debug with local native and remote debuggers (gdb, rap, webui, r2pipe, winedbg, windbg)
Run on Linux, *BSD, Windows, OSX, Android, iOS, Solaris and Haiku
Perform forensics on filesystems and data carving
Be scripted in Python, Javascript, Go and more
Support collaborative analysis using the embedded webserver
Visualize data structures of several file types
Patch programs to uncover new features or fix vulnerabilities
Use powerful analysis capabilities to speed up reversing
Aid in software exploitation

r2 is a rewrite from scratch of radare in order to provide a set of libraries and tools to work with binary files.

Radare project started as a forensics tool, an scriptable commandline hexadecimal editor able to open disk files, but later support for analyzing binaries, disassembling code, debugging programs, attaching to remote gdb servers, ..

You can use command line arguments to start your Mozilla application with special behavior.

In the fall of 2013, thinking about text utilities got me thinking in turn about how my writing habits depend on the Linux command line. This seems like a good hook for explaining some tools I use every day, so now I’m writing a short, haphazard book.

This isn’t a book about system administration, writing complex software, or becoming a wizard. I am not a wizard, and I don’t subscribe to the idea that wizardry is required to use these tools. In fact, I barely know what I’m doing most of the time. I still get some stuff done.

This is a work in progress. It probably gets some stuff wrong.

A minimal, secure password manager that can't tell on you.

taskwarrior is an open-source cross platform command-line task management tool. It allows you to capture, annotate, manipulate and present your tasks, then sync them among devices.

cmus is a small, fast and powerful console music player for Unix-like operating systems.

Enables you to back up and restore your operating system, volumes, files, folders, and applications from a command prompt.
