Yeah... my view is that if you want (generally) "one liner" for a more complex task or expression, but it in a file and save it; and execute the script.

Of course, to each his own, and I'm not saying others should not be creative; I'm only saying that my experience is that I have so much code to manage, some from 10 years ago, and "elegant" or "fancy" one liners are hard to understand years after writing them, at least for me.

Anyway, I'm always going back and looking a legacy HTML and PHP and other admin scripts for this site and all the backup sites, etc. I try to keep is very clean, easy to understand, because with a site like this; you could be out have wine with friends and need to come back to the desk to fix a problem!

But I still use the unix pipeline for command line tasks, but nothing fancy or that I would keep for sysadmin.

Anyway, maybe I misunderstood the post or the intention here... which is possible since I have been coding like crazy lately!!

LOL

First of all, apologies to the admins for not reading the rules totally and missing the bit about ranting off about other OSs. But that raises a question. Where do you go to have a good rant, to vent your disgust at various corporations and thier hideous behaviour? :confused:

A2ENSITE(8)						      System Manager's Manual						       A2ENSITE(8)

NAME

       a2ensite, a2dissite - enable or disable an apache2 site / virtual host

SYNOPSIS

       a2ensite [site]

       a2dissite [site]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the a2ensite and a2dissite commands.

       a2ensite is a script that enables the specified site (which contains a <VirtualHost> block) within the apache2 configuration.  It does this
       by creating symlinks within /etc/apache2/sites-enabled.	Likewise, a2dissite disables a site by removing those  symlinks.   It  is  not	an
       error to enable a site which is already enabled, or to disable one which is already disabled.

       The default site is handled specially: The resulting symlink will be called 000-default in order to be loaded first.

EXAMPLES

	      a2dissite default

       Disables the default site.

FILES

       /etc/apache2/sites-available
	      Directory with files giving information on available sites.

       /etc/apache2/sites-enabled
	      Directory with links to the files in sites-available for enabled sites.
