UNIX: Bash Keyboard shortcuts

Very useful neat shortcuts for traversing in Bash command line :)

Command Editing Shortcuts

  • Ctrl + a – go to the start of the command line
  • Ctrl + e – go to the end of the command line
  • Ctrl + k – delete from cursor to the end of the command line
  • Ctrl + u – delete from cursor to the start of the command line
  • Ctrl + w – delete from cursor to start of word (i.e. delete backwards one word)
  • Ctrl + y – paste word or text that was cut using one of the deletion shortcuts (such as the one above) after the cursor
  • Ctrl + xx – move between start of command line and current cursor position (and back again)
  • Alt + b – move backward one word (or go to start of word the cursor is currently on)
  • Alt + f – move forward one word (or go to end of word the cursor is currently on)
  • Alt + d – delete to end of word starting at cursor (whole word if cursor is at the beginning of word)
  • Alt + c – capitalize to end of word starting at cursor (whole word if cursor is at the beginning of word)
  • Alt + u – make uppercase from cursor to end of word
  • Alt + l – make lowercase from cursor to end of word
  • Alt + t – swap current word with previous
  • Ctrl + f – move forward one character
  • Ctrl + b – move backward one character
  • Ctrl + d – delete character under the cursor
  • Ctrl + h – delete character before the cursor
  • Ctrl + t – swap character under cursor with the previous one

Command Recall Shortcuts

  • Ctrl + r – search the history backwards
  • Ctrl + g – escape from history searching mode
  • Ctrl + p – previous command in history (i.e. walk back through the command history)
  • Ctrl + n – next command in history (i.e. walk forward through the command history)
  • Alt + . – use the last word of the previous command

Command Control Shortcuts

  • Ctrl + l – clear the screen
  • Ctrl + s – stops the output to the screen (for long running verbose command)
  • Ctrl + q – allow output to the screen (if previously stopped using command above)
  • Ctrl + c – terminate the command
  • Ctrl + z – suspend/stop the command

Bash Bang (!) Commands

  • !! - run last command
  • !blah – run the most recent command that starts with ‘blah’ (e.g. !ls)
  • !blah:p – print out the command that !blah would run (also adds it as the latest command in the command history)
  • !$ – the last word of the previous command (same as Alt + .)
  • !$:p – print out the word that !$ would substitute
  • !* – the previous command except for the last word (e.g. if you type ‘find some_file.txt /‘, then !* would give you ‘find some_file.txt‘)
  • !*:p – print out what !* would substitute

jQuery: Select a radio button by name and value

Using jQuery, if you want to select a specific radio button based on name and value
 $(':radio[name="radioBtnName"][value="radioValue"]');  
Example:


<div id="radioGrps">  
   <div id="setOne">  
       <input type="radio" name="orange" value="5" />  
       <input type="radio" name="orange" value="10" checked />  
       <input type="radio" name="orange" value="20" />  
   </div>  
   <div id="setTwo">  
      <input type="radio" name="peach" value="10" />  
      <input type="radio" name="peach" value="15" />  
      <input type="radio" name="peach" value="20" checked />  
  </div>  
 </div>  

In the above example, if you want to select radio button in div#setOne with value 10, then

$('#setOne :radio[name="orange"][value="10"]');  
 or  
 $(':radio[name="orange"][value="10"]');  
 //to make it checked  
 $(':radio[name="orange"][value="10"]').attr('checked', 'checked');
