Search Shell Command History

Rahul Nayak — Thu, 12 Jun 2014 17:43:34 -0500

We use couple of hundreads of command in daily basis. Most of them are actually repeated several time. The question remain open how do I search old command history under bash shell and modify or reuse it?

Now a days almost all modern shell allows you to search command history if enabled by user. Use history command to display the history list with line numbers. Lines listed with with a * have been modified by user.

Shell history search command

Type history at a shell prompt:
$ history

It will display the list of all used commandline history with an serial number.

To search particular command, enter:
$ history | grep command-name
$ history | egrep -i 'scp|ssh|ftp'
Emacs Line-Edit Mode Command History Searching

To get previous command containing string, hit [CTRL]+[r] followed by search string:

(reverse-i-search):

To get previous command, hit [CTRL]+[p]. You can also use up arrow key.

CTRL-p

To get next command, hit [CTRL]+[n]. You can also use down arrow key.

CTRL-n

fc command

Apart from hostory command there are fc command to extract the command from history. The fc stands for either "find command" or "fix command.

For example list last 10 command, enter:
$ fc -l 10
To list commands 130 through 150, enter:
$ fc -l 130 150
To list all commands since the last command beginning with ssh, enter:
$ fc -l ssh
You can edit commands 1 through 5 using vi text editor, enter:
$ fc -e vi 1 5

Delete command history

The -c option causes the history list to be cleared by deleting all of the entries:
$ history -c

PANDASEQ is a program to align Illumina reads, optionally with PCR primers embedded in the sequence, and reconstruct an overlapping sequence.

BioStar — Fri, 21 Sep 2018 10:19:52 -0500

Development packages for zlib and libbz2 are needed, as well as a standard compiler environment. On Ubuntu, this can be installed via:

sudo apt-get install build-essential libtool automake zlib1g-dev libbz2-dev pkg-config

On MacOS, the Apple Developer tools and Fink (or MacPorts or Brew) must be installed, then:

sudo fink install bzip2-dev pkgconfig

Bioinformatician’s Pocket Reference !!

RAJESH DETROJA — Sun, 08 Jun 2014 09:56:58 -0500

It is amusing how brain of bioinformaticians work! Learning a new programming language for days feels so much of fun that making 5 minute discussion with neighbours (unless under special circumstances!) in our own mother-tongue. Today every bioinformatician keeps more than few languages and core IT toolkits on their plate. It has become mandatory to be able to mould different code snippets to build our own custom workflows, and thus keeping syntax at our fingertips has become essential.Although Google is best way to get syntax problem solved, it is not a bad idea to keep reference sheets is our smartphones or stick out some printed sheets on the back of your door, in the old fashion way!!

Flye: Fast and accurate de novo assembler for single molecule sequencing reads

Rahul Nayak — Sat, 06 Jul 2019 03:48:22 -0500

Flye is a de novo assembler for single molecule sequencing reads, such as those produced by PacBio and Oxford Nanopore Technologies. It is designed for a wide range of datasets, from small bacterial projects to large mammalian-scale assemblies. The package represents a complete pipeline: it takes raw PB / ONT reads as input and outputs polished contigs. Flye also includes a special mode for metagenome assembly.

Postdoc position at Centre Méditerranéen de Médecine Moléculaire

Sun, 06 Jul 2014 11:23:06 -0500

The research group of Dr. Michele Trabucchi at the Centre Méditerranéen de Médecine Moléculaire (C3M) at INSERM U1065 (University of Nice Sophia-Antipolis, France) is seeking candidates for a Postdoctoral fellow position to start on October 2014 for 3 years funded by FRM (Fondation pour la Recherche Médicale).
The broad interest of the lab is in understanding the expression control and function of small RNAs in activated myeloid cells (visit our webpage to check research interests and publications of the group : http://www.unice.fr/c3m/EN/Equipe10.html ).

The work will focus on the functional studies of small RNAs by using next-generation sequencing approaches.

Candidates should hold a Ph.D. degree and have strong background in bioinformatics.
The University of Nice Sophia-Antipolis provides a wide range of facilities and training essential for biomedical research.
Interested applicants should send a PDF with a cover letter stating research interests and qualifications, an updated CV, a summary of previous research experience and contact information for two references to Michele Trabucchi ( mtrabucchi@unice.fr )

Hifiasm: a haplotype-resolved assembler for accurate Hifi reads

Jit — Thu, 24 Dec 2020 10:03:36 -0600

Hifiasm is a fast haplotype-resolved de novo assembler for PacBio Hifi reads. It can assemble a human genome in several hours and works with the California redwood genome, one of the most complex genomes sequenced so far. Hifiasm can produce primary/alternate assemblies of quality competitive with the best assemblers. It also introduces a new graph binning algorithm and achieves the best haplotype-resolved assembly given trio data.

HairSplitter: assembling long reads in an unknown number of haplotypes

BioStar — Wed, 07 Dec 2022 00:13:40 -0600

Pros and cons of HairSplitter Limitations of HairSplitter:

Not very fast: it re-polishes the whole assembly

Limited in the number of haplotypes

Strengths of HairSplitter:

Very modular, can be used with any assembler

Naive: makes no assumption on ploidy, parameter-free

Safe: won’t artificially duplicate contigs

HairSplitter splits collapsed assemblies from “draft” assemblies obtained by any means

HairSplitter can recover haplotypes and distinguish repeated elements

Only needs sequencing reads, potentially error-prone
