Here’s mine (from my server rata):

history | awk '{print $2}' | awk 'BEGIN {FS="|"} {print $1}' | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr | head -10
159 ls
117 cd
59 scp
29 gvim
28 ssh
24 mv
21 mysql
20 locate
19 su
13 rm

So what does this say?

• ls most of the time I’m only looking
• cd then I’m gone
• scp the data is always greener on another host
• gvim I do do some work
• ssh but I wish I was somewhere else
• mv maybe moving things around will help?
• mysql ok, just lately I’m playing around with MySQL replication, more about that later
• locate I’m so lost
• su time to call upon a higher power
• rm when all else fails try something destructive
