stupid nano

This will allow you to change the default editor of you system. Works for most if not all debian derivatives. SVN commits were really annoying until I switched over to VI.
$ sudo update-alternatives --config editor

locating broken symbolic links
Posted by oxchronxo
Want to find broken/dead/dangling symbolic links on your system. There are a lot ways to do this but one of the simplest is to use a package called "symlinks".
$ sudo apt-get install symlinks $ symlinks -r $(pwd)
once installed you will get output like the following:
messy: FAKE_PATH/Konfabulator -> Konfabulator-Partner-9.10-week3-5.2.6-1-inflated/ dangling: FAKE_PATH/Konfabulator-5.3-1-191083-1250636017/Konfabulator -> /mtd_down/nfs/devices/partner/Konfabulator messy: FAKE_PATH/Konfabulator-5.3-1-191083-1250636017/Konfabulator -> ./Konfabulator.launcher dangling: FAKE_PATH/Konfabulator-5.3-1-191083-1250636017/Konfabulator -> /mtd_down/nfs/devices/partner/Konfabulator dangling: FAKE_PATH/Konfabulator-5.4.1-192904-1253669212/Konfabulator -> /mtd_down/nfs/devices/partner/Konfabulator dangling: FAKE_PATH/Konfabulator-9.10-week3-5.2.6-1/Konfabulator -> /mtd_down/nfs/devices/partner/Konfabulator dangling: FAKE_PATH/Konfabulator-9.10-week3-5.2.6-1/Konfabulator -> /mtd_down/nfs/devices/partner/Konfabulator messy: FAKE_PATH/Konfabulator-9.2-week4-9/Konfabulator -> ./Konfabulator.launcher messy: FAKE_PATH/Konfabulator-9.8-week2-5.2.5-6/Konfabulator -> ./Konfabulator.launcher messy: FAKE_PATH/Konfabulator-5.3-1-191647-1251428074/Konfabulator -> ./Konfabulator.launcher messy: FAKE_PATH/Konfabulator-5.5-1-4994-1255339266/Konfabulator -> ./Konfabulator.launcher messy: FAKE_PATH/Konfabulator-5.5-1-5159-1256950502/Konfabulator -> ./Konfabulator.launcher

This little bash command let's us order files sequentially based on their actual time while being human readable using. This uses the full year and 24 hour time format.
FORMAT: FILE.date +%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S
OUTPUT: FILE.2010-02-25_11-50-32
