Extract a JSON value from a BASH script
#!/bin/bash
function jsonval {
temp=`echo $json | sed 's/\\\\\//\//g' | sed 's/[{}]//g' | awk -v k="text" '{n=split($0,a,","); for (i=1; i<=n; i++) print a[i]}' | sed 's/\"\:\"/\|/g' | sed 's/[\,]/ /g' | sed 's/\"//g' | grep -w $prop`
echo ${temp##*|}
}

Sometimes, when adding a branch like so:
`fetch = path/to/branch:refs/remotes/git-svn/mynewbranch`
the path to the branch is mispelt.
You then go ahead and do a `$ git svn fetch` and git finds nothing. You realize what an incredible dolt you are and fix the path,
`fetch = realpath/to/branch:refs/remotes/git-svn/mynewbranch`

Gnome to Wine color scraper
This is a Python script to extract GNOME/GTK's color scheme and apply it to Wine, so that the themes (approximately) match.
Instructions:
1. Set your Gnome theme as you would like it
2. Run with a command like "python wine_colors_from_gtk.py"
3. Restart any apps running in Wine. They should match the Gnome theme colors now.
