This week we have been being your eyes and contributing to Common Voice. We discuss the Ubuntu Community Team with Rhys Davies, bring you a command line love and reply to all your wonderful feedback.

It’s Season 14 Episode 24 of the Ubuntu Podcast! Alan Pope, Mark Johnson and Rhys Davies are connected and speaking to your brain.

In this week’s show:

  • We discuss what we’ve been up to recently:
  • We discuss The Ubuntu Community team with Developer Advocate Rhys Davies.
  • We share a Command Line Lurve:
    • Append commands to history as you go.
# After each command, append to the history file and reread it
PROMPT_COMMAND="${PROMPT_COMMAND:+$PROMPT_COMMAND; history -a; history -c; history -r}"

    I put that Command Line Lurve in my .bashrc file. I then get this in my terminal:

    bash: PROMPT_COMMAND: line 0: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `”
    bash: PROMPT_COMMAND: line 1: syntax error: unexpected end of file

    How should the command be used? Thanks.

    I just listened to ‘S14E26 – Amid Navigable Impulses’ and ye read out my comment, saying the code was posted incorrectly and was fixed. I can also confirm this – it works fine now. Thanks.
