little helpers
This script can be used to track time. I use this to track my work because separate tools added too much overhead to be effective and ergonomic.
Usage:
$ timer Customer "Task Description" Seconds
Example:
martin@martin-tp:~$ timer ElonMusk "Revamping Falcon Heavy for increased load" 1500
... tracking you time:
1498
This scripts adds some color coding to your man pages. It helps me to find things more quickly as it visually groups keywords. This goes to .bashrc.
This script allows to directly google upon the return of a command in your terminal. I mainly use this to quickly google for lengthy errors or when I am just to lazy to alt+tab.
Usage:
$ google $(somecommand)
$ google keyword
Example:
martin@martin-tp:~$ google $(pwd)
martin@martin-tp:~$ google foobar
