General :: Capture A List Of All Installed Commands?
Jan 30, 2010
if I open a terminal and hit [TAB] [TAB] it will display "Display all 2583 possibilities? (y or n) ". If I press y is there a way to capture the output and write it to a file? Not like it is a command so I can't just use a redirect to a file? If not I guess I could just do an ls on all locations of $PATH and capture that to a file.

List of 77 lines with the names of movies. For ease, let's say it's in a text file. What I want is a command line argument I can pass that'll read each line and pick one of those 77 lines at random, except I can't figure out how to do this. Is there a program I can just pipe the output of 'cat listofmovies.txt' to?
I've just started experimenting with SSH tunnels. I wanted a way to connect to MySQL on our website VPS but wanted the connection encrypted rather than just using PHP's mysql_connect() function and connecting to the remote IP. This seems to be working great. I'm also looking into autossh to make sure that the tunnel gets reconnected when it drops.is there a command/utility that can list the currently active SSH tunnels? Be great if there was a way of terminating an active tunnel through a command as well. Or is it a case of manually digging through the process list and killing the specific PID like I have been?
i am working on some kind of PBX and i have list of telephone numbers inside a file, i have to insert these numbers into the correct command and then telnet to a remote server and execute these commands. i can read the telephone numbers and insert them into the command with no problem, but when i try to insert these commands into the send i face problem. here is the basic code
i can make external loop inside the Bash which read the input file and issue the command and then telnet and execute, but this will make the script connects and disconnects again for each line which cause high load on that server and hardwar problem. i am wondering if there is an option inside the expect interperter which makes the send read directly from a file... somthing like this:
I understand there is a file that stores the repositories' information, but I can't find it!Is there a way I can create a list of what applications have been installed?The idea is that if I am running a backup, finding a way to save the repository list and applications installed so if I am upgrading, or fixing a borked system by re-installing Fedora, I could copy the repo list back, and run the applications list like ode:yum install <cat apps.txt?> and get all of the applications I've installed via Yum without having to remember them all?Is there anything else, outside of /home, I should look at backing up? SELinux settings?

last time i used debian it was missing some commands that were necessary for the stuff i was trying to install on itdebian has no software repositories (not as extensive as ubuntu but i guess thats why its so user friendly) and finding depencancies that are up to date is really hard seeing as though that the ubuntu site says is out of dateone of the commands that i really wished was on there was the MAKE commands like make make installnd i guess there are other make commands but is there an easy way (i am more than willing to try it the hard way if i have to)

I've been using Fedora 11 x86_64 for over a year and am about to upgrade to Fedora 13 using a genuine Fedora installation CD that I got last summer at OSCON. I've made a full system backup, but before I take the plunge I want to get a list of all installed applications. I have tons of special applications installed, many of which took tweaks to get running. Just in case something breaks so badly that I have to reinstall I want to be sure I can put everything back, even if it takes me several days work.I know I have read about utilities that will generate a list of installed apps, but I can't find any.
