No company swag hoodie.
No stickers on their laptop.
No mechanical keyboard.
No Windows or macOS.
He just sat there.
Typing away in vim IDE running on Arch Linux and older ThinkPad.

Like a psychopath.

Searching multiple words like a pro on your macOS, Linux and Unix box

When you type ‘rsync –help’ you get a wall of text. One option is to use less on Linux:

rsync –help|less

But, I prefer to grep to search multiple strings to find about -p, -h, -i, -b & -u options:

rsync –help|grep -E -w – ’-(p|h|i|b|u)’


SeeHow To Search Multiple Words / String Pattern Using grep Command on Bash shell for more info.

In order to tell grep not to treat ’–’ as command line option prefix pattern with –. The double dash “–” means “end of command line flags.” It tells grep (or any valid Linux/Unix command) not to try to parse what comes after command line options.
