File Magic Numbers

File Magic Numbers

Magic numbers are the first bits of a file which uniquely identify the type of file. This makes programming easier because complicated file structures need not be searched in order to identify the file type.

For example, a jpeg file starts with ffd8 ffe0 0010 4a46 4946 0001 0101 0047 ......JFIF.....G ffd8 shows that it's a JPEG file, and ffe0 identify a JFIF type structure. There is an ascii encoding of "JFIF" which comes after a length code, but that is not necessary in order to identify the file. The first 4 bytes do that uniquely.

This gives an ongoing list of file-type magic numbers.

Merge multiple PDFs using Ghostscript

A simple Ghostscript command to merge two PDFs in a single file is shown below:

gs -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -sOUTPUTFILE=combine.pdf -dBATCH 1.pdf 2.pdf

Install Ghostscript:

Type the command sudo apt-get install ghostscript to download and install the ghostscript package and all of the packages it depends on.

Chrome: pause before redirect
// Run this in the F12 javascript console in chrome
// if a redirect happens, the page will pause
// this helps because chrome's network tab's
// "preserve log" seems to technically preserve the log
// but you can't actually LOOK at it...
// also the "replay xhr" feature does not work after reload
// even if you "preserve log".
window.addEventListener("beforeunload", function() { debugger; }, false)

Global gitignore

There are certain files created by particular editors, IDEs, operating systems, etc., that do not belong in a repository. But adding system-specific files to the repo's .gitignore is considered a poor practice. This file should only exclude files and directories that are a part of the package that should not be versioned (such as the node_modules directory) as well as files that are generated (and regenerated) as artifacts of a build process.

All other files should be in your own global gitignore file:

  • Create a file called .gitignore in your home directory and add any filepath patterns you want to ignore.
  • Tell git where your global gitignore file is.

Note: The specific name and path you choose aren't important as long as you configure git to find it, as shown below. You could substitute .config/git/ignore for .gitignore in your home directory, if you prefer.

Byobu (over SSH) Cheat Sheet

Byobu (over SSH) Cheat Sheet

I often find myself using Byobu on a Linux machine when connected to it over SSH. In doing so, I've noticed that many of the documented keyboard shortcuts don't work. This can be due to the native PC's OS intercepting certain keys, or possibly other reasons.

Below is a cheatsheet with Byobu features I have found usually work when run over a SSH connection.

Action Windows + Putty to Ubuntu MacOS + Terminal to Ubuntu
Help menu BASH: byobu-config FN-F1
Create new window CTRL-a c CTRL-a c or FN-F2
