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>

$('#setOne :radio[name="orange"][value="10"]');

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