Now that Veeam is solidly settled in Linux Land I thought it would be fun to occasionally post some useful tricks.
When it comes to command line editors, some folks like nano, some vi.
I got used to vi.
If you want to run a command in vi and save the output in the file you can do it by typying bang bang while in command mode followed by your command. The output will be pasted into your file.
!!cat/etc/os-release

BOOM!

I don’t know how often you will need to use it, but it beats copying and pasting back and forth.
On the cli itself !! runs the last command that you did.
