From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I think you live in a parallel universe or something. Do you consider cheat sheets to be nice if they are littered with colors. Those are made for direct usage not as a picture to hang on a wall. I have found using cheat sheets very effective way to learn a new thing very fast. If I have it printed in front of me, each time I look up a command (or shortcuts), I scan the other commands as well (consciously or subconsciously). That way I can quickly memorize all the shortcuts. There is no doubt that the same can be accomplished with reading a man page, but clearly having all the commands in front of you (without need to scroll) allows you to memorize them faster!

I am very sorry about the copyright issues. I don't feel bad or guilty about putting information from a man page. Most of the time I worded it differently than in a man page.


Talking about sed man page, I did not copy it from that tutorial you are referring to. I studied the source code and compared what the tutorial said with the source. The information came from the source code and was compared to the tutorial.

Don't believe me? Invent a time travel machine and come here to my apartment in Latvia to see what I was doing at the time I was learning sed.

Is it ok if I add those copyrights and make the cheat sheets GNU FLD license? Can I add the cheat sheets back then? Also I don't believe you are the Internet police to tell me what can be added to Wikipedia or what can't. I'll have someone else add it.

Also talking about the digpicz digg page. You made a comment that I was spamming with the site. You have absolutely no clue what the Digg society was begging for months. That site neither promotes me, nothing. It's just a picture section for digg. Exactly what Digg users wanted. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.198.226.118 (talk) 21:46, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

The wording is exactly the same, the table is exactly the same even the note below the table is exaclty the same....

Yes, asking for permission from the original author to reproduce and putting the proper copyright and aknowledgement would help.

Also try to look at other cheat sheets out there. People making them really work to make theirs. See http://sdf.lonestar.org/index.cgi?tutorials/ed Even if it may not be as pretty as yours, it tries to summarize things, and to group the commands by what they are doing providing an added value with regard to the man page. Your sed cheat sheet does not underline the gnu extensions. Your bash cheat sheet does not even contain the nice tricks you describe on your page and contain useless information in the context of a cheat sheet.

oh, If you think the copyright, credits are not important...what would you say if I took your sheets remove the copyright notice and add links to these versions here?

You were pointed that adding links to your own site is spam by someone else and I didn't make the comment about digg.

Yes, I admit that I put a link to my site which is very relevant to the topic but so did the others without being removed (you can't see them now because I did it for you). Needless to say that the links that you did not remove were not as relevant to the topic as mine.

Thanks for your time

I've removed my warning as you seem to appreciate the problems we have trying to keep external links under control and have moved on to making useful contributions to articles. Also, thanks for removing the other commercial links. Feel free to remove any more that you come across. --GraemeL (talk) 12:17, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

Please do not add commercial links or links to your own private websites to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or a mere collection of external links. You are, however, encouraged to add content instead of links to the encyclopedia. If you feel the link should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. See the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you.
