After almost 2 years of using Telegram, I finally discovered that it is possible to enter emoji using its name after “:” character. Unfortunately I couldn’t find any complete list of available emojis anywhere, so I had to dig deep into the Telegram desktop source code to generate it. It was far more complicated than

Now the boring part. If you log into a machine where a Wayland session is already active – I often log into my home machines remotely – any Gtk program will show on the Wayland desktop. So you use “waypipe ssh $HOST” which is cool and works like a breeze but adding those lines to your .bashrc helps when you are not using a wayland session (i.e. Windows):

if [ -n "$SSH_CLIENT" ]; then
  if [ -n "$WAYLAND_DISPLAY" ]; then
    echo "Remote session with waypipe, everything will be OK" 
  else 
    echo "Remote session, forcing GTK to X11"
    export GDK_BACKEND=x11

You can use wget to download all PDFs from a webpage by using:

wget -r -l1 -H -t1 -nd -N -np -A.pdf -erobots=off --wait=2 --random-wait --limit-rate=20k [URL]

• -r: Recursive download.
• -l1: Only one level deep (i.e., only files directly linked from this page).
• -H: Span hosts (follow links to other hosts).
• -t1: Number of retries is 1.
• -nd: Don’t create a directory structure, just download all the files into the current directory.
• -N: Turn on timestamping.
• -np: Do not follow links to parent directories.
• -A.pdf: Accept only files that end with .pdf.
• -erobots=off: Ignore the robots.txt file (use carefully, respecting site’s terms and conditions).
• –wait=2: Wait 2 seconds between each retrieval.
• –random-wait: Wait from 0.5 to 1.5 * –wait seconds between retrievals.
• –limit-rate=20k: Limit the download rate to 20 kilobytes per second.

This parameters will avoid the “429: Too Many Requests” error.

Well, after reading How to add a directory to your PATH written by Julia Evans I know that it is not as simple as it seems!

How to copy a file or directory from another GIT repository while preserving its history?

Internet is full of magic formulas each one more complex.

Here I’m proposing a much simpler and faster one that is to make a git format-patch for the entire history of the file or subdirectory that we want and then import it into the destination repository.

mkdir /tmp/mergepatchs
cd ~/repo/org
export reposrc=myfile.c #or mydir
git format-patch -o /tmp/mergepatchs $(git log $reposrc|grep ^commit|tail -1|awk '{print $2}')^..HEAD $reposrc
cd ~/repo/dest
git am /tmp/mergepatchs/*.patch

Simple and fast
