I often find myself grep-ing for information in system or application log files. And often, by combining pipes, I end up generating a flow of values that is sometimes difficult to interpret.

In this post I'll show you a quick-and-dirty but handy solution to get basic statistical quantities from …

Malgré leurs nombreux défauts ^[1], les scripts shell restent bien pratiques. Pourquoi ? Parce qu'ils fonctionnent exactement comme l'interpréteur de ligne de commande de votre terminal Linux. Ils sont donc la solution la plus simple et rapide pour automatiser des enchaînement de commandes ^[2].
