I just posted this as part of a reply to a question about the "best" bug-tracking software... Well, a tool on its own is just a tool. And while all speak of a toolchain, most just mean a loose collection of tools. Why not look for a problem tracker that "plays well with other children"?

It uses the following code: CRON_LOG=$(ls -1 $LOGS_DIR/fetch_cron_{true,false}_$CRON_DATE*.log 2> /dev/null | sed 's/^[^0-9][^0-9]*\([0-9][0-9]*\).*/\1 &/' | sort -n | cut -d ' ' -f2- | tail -1 ) if ...
I'm using Putty to log into a debian server. I have this odd problem that when a command I'm typing gets too long, it doesn't wraparound and start a new line, instead it starts at the beginning of the same line and starts to overwrite the prompt and then the beginning of the command. The command will run just fine, but it is really anno...
