Top Ten

My top ten looks like this:

$ history|awk '{a[$2]++ } END{for(i in a){print a[i] " " i}}'|sort -rn|head
161 ls
85 cd
46 vim
33 make
28 clear
21 ll
16 rm
15 svn
14 sudo
10 touch

What does your top ten look like ?

    My (server) top ten

    114 ll
    84 cd
    35 vi
    26 python
    23 ls
    21 grep
    16 sudo
    15 less
    13 screen
    12 w

    The desktop top 10 should be plenty different. I’ll post it later.

  2. Nuno Inacio says:

    Desktop now. Pity this is just the command line, actual usage is about 50% or more done with a GUI.

    85 ll
    78 cd
    29 lastfm_timer.py
    23 mencoder
    22 ssh
    22 gmplayer
    21 less
    21 cat
    19 su
    17 ls

    We also have sudo, su which are prefixing other commands. I guess if this would take into account that, and the GUI interactions it would be too intrusive, right ?

    Well, if it were too intrusive I would not be posting them. And anyway I use sudo, su on ubuntu and debian respectively to gain a root shell. I hate prefixing commands with sudo – one root command never comes alone :)
