My cheat sheet for commands I have trouble remembering.

Converting Emails

EML to MBOX using eml2mbox (email2mbox-git on AUR)

cd /path/to/eml/files
eml2mbox

This creates .archive.mbox.

MBOX to HTML Threads using Mhonarc (mhonarc on AUR)

cd /path/to/.archive.mbox/file
mhonarc .archive.mbox

This creates threads.html and extracts all information into the directory.

Find and copy files by extension recursively

find . -name '*.pdf' -exec cp -r {} /home/jpickard/pdffiles \;

7-Zip compression (p7zip)

7z a archivename.7z thingtobearchived

Recursively unzip

while [ "`find . -type f -name '*.zip' | wc -l`" -gt 0 ]; do find -type f -name "*.zip" -exec unzip -- '{}' \; -exec rm -- '{}' \;; done

Merge PDF files

Ghostscript

gs -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -sOUTPUTFILE=mergedfile.pdf -dBATCH file1.pdf file2.pdf

ImageMagick

convert file1.pdf[0-1] file2.pdf mergedfile.pdf

Convert webp to JPG/PNG

dwebp mycat.webp -o mycat.png

ExifTool

List metadata of image

exiftool image.jpg
