The Fuck

The Fuck corrects errors in previous console commands

CHECK IT OUT

The name may be a little awkward, but The Fuck is an awesome utility every programmer must be aware of. I am a developer myself and happen to spend a lot my time in front of the black screen( The terminal ). Many a times it happens that we make a typo or syntax error in entering a command (sometimes to show off our typing skills in front of a colleague :D ), which results in a lot of errors on the screen(Fail!!). While sometimes it's easy to figure out what may have gone wrong, by simply reading the error message, it may take days until you figure out what went wrong.

The Fuck is an amazing utility that can read the errors from the previous console command and rerun the command with corrected command. Just by entering fuck command on the console immediately after the error. So handy!

The Fuck attempts to match the previous command with a rule. If a match is found, a new command is created using the matched rule and executed. Source

There are a set of commands that have pre configured rules that come inbuilt with the utility. The users can also create their custom rules for commands they use frequently. The list of default rules can be found in the project readme here,

And the best thing about this app is that it is free and open-source.
To know more about installation and configuration of The Fuck Please visit the project repo on GitHub

PS : Its Totally Safe for work! :D
