Just some stuff i do from the terminal with my bashrc and lynx;

Translate words
Define words
Check the weather

# richs-lxh needs to find rude words in other languages, define new groovy  words that the kids use nowadays, and see if it's sunny ; D

# Weather by placename # weather "Barcelona"
weather ()
{ 
declare -a WEATHERARRAY 
WEATHERARRAY=( `lynx -dump "http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&q=weather+${1}&btnG=Search" | grep -A 5 -m 1 "Weather for" | grep -v "Add to "`) 
echo ${WEATHERARRAY[@]} 
}

#Translate Spanish/English  - USAGE: translate lamer spanish  # See dictionary.com for available languages (there are many).
translate ()
{
TRANSLATED=`lynx -dump "http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/${1}" | grep -i -m 1 -w "${2}:" | sed 's/^[ \t]*//;s/[ \t]*$//'`
if [[ ${#TRANSLATED} != 0 ]] ;then
   echo "\"${1}\" in ${TRANSLATED}"
   else
   echo "Sorry, I can not translate \"${1}\" to ${2}"
fi
}

# Define a groovy word - USAGE: define lamer
define ()
{
lynx -dump "http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=define%3A+${1}&btnG=Google+Search" | grep -m 3 -w "*"  | sed 's/;/ -/g' | cut -d- -f1 > /tmp/templookup.txt
         if [[ -s  /tmp/templookup.txt ]] ;then
            until ! read response
               do
               echo "${response}"
               done < /tmp/templookup.txt
            else
               echo "Sorry $USER, I can't find the term \"${1} \""
         fi
rm -f /tmp/templookup.txt
}

The examples look like this:

rslxh@arch$ weather barcelona
Weather for Barcelona - 25ºC Current:Cloudy 
Wind: SW at 8 km/h Humidity: 75%

rslxh@arch$ translate hacker spanish
"hacker" in Spanish: pirata informático

rslxh@arch$ define newbie
* A new Internet user. If you are reading this defintion, you
* An individual lacking the knowledge of application functions.
* A new writer.

Those define and translate functions looks kinda neat!

Here's mine:

export PATH="$PATH:~/bin:~/script:/opt/texlive/bin"

alias ls='ls -lh --color=auto'

PS1='\[\e[1;33m\][\u@\h \W]\[\e[0;32m\]\$\[\e[00m\] '

if [ -f /etc/bash_completion ]; then
    . /etc/bash_completion
fi

alias pacs="pacsearch"

pacsearch () {
       echo -e "$(pacman -Ss $@ | sed \
       -e 's#core/.*#\\033[1;31m&\\033[0;37m#g' \
       -e 's#extra/.*#\\033[0;32m&\\033[0;37m#g' \
       -e 's#community/.*#\\033[1;35m&\\033[0;37m#g' \
       -e 's#^.*/.* [0-9].*#\\033[0;36m&\\033[0;37m#g' )"
}

complete -cf sudo

#Get colored output of manpages
export LESS_TERMCAP_mb=$'\E[01;31m'
export LESS_TERMCAP_md=$'\E[01;31m'
export LESS_TERMCAP_me=$'\E[0m'
export LESS_TERMCAP_se=$'\E[0m'
export LESS_TERMCAP_so=$'\E[01;44;33m'
export LESS_TERMCAP_ue=$'\E[0m'
export LESS_TERMCAP_us=$'\E[01;32m'

And thank you for the pacsearch code. Very nice

That is simply amazing. I have been using nix for years and I had no clue you could do that in bash. Great job!!!!

I wonder what else can be accomplished using bash and lynx? Time for some researching.

Once again thanks for the ideals and the code.

I'd just like to add that the codes are just things i have found on the net over the years. I didn't write them.

I don't want to take any credit for other people's work. I just copied and pasted them.

securitybreach · 2008-09-05 19:09:27

Yeah I copied yours too. Still thank you providing insight into what can be done with bash.

Thanks

Thanks, Google is your friend

Have you seen my sig? "jfgi", I copied that as well.

Very weird. I woke up today and for some reason everything works but the translation part. Now it cannot find any word using any language.

[comhack@Venus ~]$ translate home german
Sorry, I can not translate "home" to german
[comhack@Venus ~]$ translate home spanish
Sorry, I can not translate "home" to spanish
[comhack@Venus ~]$ translate home italian
Sorry, I can not translate "home" to italian

I have not changed anything in the .bashrc either.

Any ideals?

shopt -s checkwinsize

Just added the checkwinsize part :-) thanks ukognos!
Also, look up [[ ]] on bash manpage, it's much better than [ ]. Word splitting inside [[ ]] is disabled, so you don't have to quote variables, and you get pathname-like pattern matching in == and !=.

EDIT: fixed typo.

Question on the weather code used above...

$weather portland
Weather for Portland, OR 56°F Current:Cloudy Wind: NW at 0 mph Humidity: 92%
$weather portland maine
Weather for Portland, OR 56°F Current:Cloudy Wind: NW at 0 mph Humidity: 92%
$weather portland/maine
Weather for Portland, ME 74°F Current:Cloudy Wind: SW at 2 mph Humidity: 88%

Certainly not an issue, but I'm wondering how to handle the whitespace just out of curiosity. Cool stuff guys!

Oh, as for myself I think the ONLY thing I have not ripped in my .bashrc is this:

#list running daemons
alias dlist='ls /var/run/daemons'

Ever feel like the net leads you to strange places and then back again ????????

I was searching google for something bash related... (how to list all the functions in your bash profile) ...ended up at a blog..... found my bash functions listed there as author unknown......and it linked back to this post on archlinux.....where i see incarnations of my bash functions....... which i had originally posted here http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=30155 ..... wierd........

The web is seriously twisted......... but pretty cool that all roads lead to Arch

Arch Linux
