Linux tip of the day 💡 In the terminal, Alt + . is a small but powerful productivity shortcut. It inserts last argument of your previous command at the cursor position. Ideal for reusing long file paths or filenames without retyping.

Linux tip of the day 💡 Create a sparse file with an apparent size of 10GB but allocate minimal physical disk space initially. truncate -s 10G sparsefile.img It simply sets the file size metadata to 10 GB without writing data blocks. The file "appears" large without consuming actual disk space. Very fast and does not impact system performance at creation. Disk blocks are only allocated when you write non-zero data to this sparse file later.

Linux tip of the day 💡 Vim can undo by time, not just by steps. Instead of hitting u repeatedly, use: : earlier 2m This rewinds the buffer to how it looked 2 minutes ago. Extremely useful after bulk edits.

I know I am committing some sort of blasphemy, but you can use mouse in Vim with: :set mouse=a And it will enable the mouse mode that not many people are aware of 🙃
