I'll bet you untended to use sort -n instead of sort -r as the last sort in the pipe. Or even sort -rn

Sweet. :)

I still really like your new style…

@Mark:

Same here. I can’t stand it anymore if I have to type out a full command. I think to myself “ugh, this takes so long”.

I SSH into a ton of different machines so I use stuff like:

alias server1=’ssh 192.168.1.102 -l pete’
alias server2=’ssh 192.168.1.103 -l larry’
alias server3=’ssh http://www.myremoteserver.com -l bob’

I also have one for starting up a reverse SSH tunnel since the command is rather long and I always forget it.
