Does anybody else have a library of saved commands/scripts? What’s in it? How do you organize it? Is there anything you’d want to share that other people might find helpful?
I do. I keep it in VS Code and store complicated (for me) stuff that I can’t remember or worry I might not.
-
Playlist download with yt-dlp with all my best settings, adding playlist index as track number.
-
Ffmpeg metadata cleaner for music. Searching title for a bunch of specific strings to remove, setting the band, album, etc. and saving these in a new folder.
-
Desktop file contents for when I need to create one for an appimage
-
The script I used to bind audio output switching to a hotkey
-
How to use ADB for when android blocks sideloading the normal way and I inevitably forget what Android Debug Bridge is or how to use it.
Linux Mint btw. Also yes, I am a noob.


I have lots of scripts and aliases since I run a very mininal setup.
The aliases are automatically set when I start a new shell and I have a shortcut command to
catthe alias file so I can quickly view what aliases and functions I have saved.I also have a folder that contains all my notes and scripts. It’s all organized and it acts as a staging area before I move any scripts to the proper location or device.
I found a hobby in writing scripts. I’ve been spending a lot of time writing my own backup system that uses
rsyncand it’s nearing completion which I’m excited about. It’s been something I’ve been working building on and off since the new year began.
