RipgrepCountMatches

 @elirnm I believe you could just use the tee command?

$ rg blah blah | tee >(wc -l)

match

match

match

    3

If you want to remove that tab before the output, you can do this:

$ rg blah blah | tee >(wc -l | xargs echo)

Gboard delete Personal Dictionary

Why?

Kill imported Personal Dictionary

I tried to import a personal dictionary using the dictionary.txt method 

Unfortunately The dictionary file or rather zip file was imported under a Japanese dictionary and not English US. Thus I need it to delete the Japanese dictionary and start all over again. 

Here we go:

How?

Clear Storage and Cache from App info of Gboard

Go to settings and search for Gboard 

You're going to clear the storage and cache which contains the personal dictionary

Then select clear

Make it so: Linux Laptop for the rest of us

Breath of fresh air

ChromeOS intact

Developer Mode

Run off USB for isolation

Maybe the latest Frame.Work Chromebook does not look so bad after all?!

matched directories

ls -d ~/.*

climagic (@Command Line Magic) Tweeted: Sometimes I want to be able to see just the hidden files and directories under my home directory, so that I know what I need to transfer to a new host. The -d here prevents seeing the contents of matched directories
