shell commands Wrapped

To get the top 10 most used shell commands, run

history | awk '{print $2}' | sort | uniq --count | sort --numeric-sort --reverse | head -10

explained:

history # List all commands from history file
awk '{print $2}' # print the second field
sort # sort alphabetically
uniq --count # combine consecutive duplicates and count how many there are. requires sort before so it captures all of them correctly
sort --numeric-sort --reverse # sort by the count in descending numeric order
head -10 # print the first 10 entries
