Thanks for the new addition to my mnemonic collection!

perl -lane # process input by line, split into fields, print outputs with new lines, execute code

netstat -planet # show process, extended info, all socket types

ss -pimento # basically every piece of info about live connections

iostat -txyz # extended, omit first report (the since-boot one), omit devices with no activity, log datetime

  less -SEXIER

Truncate long lines instead of wrap, quit at eof, don't clear the screen, show ansi color escape codes as colors but escape other ansi escape codes.

Imagine an old PS/2 mouse with a mini Jack cord & plug. Non-standard but works. I mean, on GNU/Linux:

  ps aux

Party time:

  rsync -rave ssh SOURCE DESTINATION

I use -avz

Aww, shucks: rsync -aSHx src/ dest
