for every ffmpeg option, there exists a matching small script written by some frustrated programmer who can't remember the arguments, so they wrote a script to remember it for them
@foone I did this with tar lmao
ctar, xtar, and ttar, which create, extract, and list contents of, gzipped tarballs.
They're in my bashrc as:
alias ctar=tar -czvf
alias xtar=tar -xzvf
alias ttar=tar -tzvf
@dragonarchitect i appreciate that you use the same argument order as me, as well as the leading dash lol
@dragonarchitect iirc the dash, and even the z are not necessary on modern versions of tar, but i still use them out of habit
edit: might need the z in combination with c though, i'm not certain on that without looking it up
@krishean @dragonarchitect @foone
Ich kann mich nicht erinnern daß ich bei tar jemals Bindestriche verwenden musste. Schon seit SCO xenix nicht. ;-)
@Michie164 @dragonarchitect @foone all the examples still have them, so it's how i learned the command. i doubt any of the examples were published long enough ago for it to need the dash though lol
