Error Correction
Here’s another quick tip for all you bash users - likely most of you. As always,
it’s about saving keystrokes and operating at maximum efficiency.
It seems like every time I type in the command “snortstart” to fire off the
script that starts the snort sniffer on my machine, it comes out “snortstatr.”
When that happens, I can save a keystroke or two by using the Ctrl+t option in
bash. By pressing these two keys simultaneously, the last two letters in the
command - “tr” - will swap - “rt”., And, yes, it works with any command you’ve
misspelled on the command line.
Maybe one of these days, I’ll have actually acquite finger dexterity that’s
something better than that of a horse and won’t need these little bash
time-saving tips.
