I have been running cheat-sh for awhile now and I tell you this is better then “tldr” or “tealdeer” from a rust crate.

Example of cheat:

cheat-sh stat cheat.sheets:stat

stat

Display file or file system status

display numerical values for file permissions

stat -c ‘%a %n’ *

Display only the octal permissions for the given directory. Great for tests.

stat --format=‘%a’ /boot

tldr:stat

stat

Display file and filesystem information.

More information: https://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/manual/html_node/stat-invocation.html.

Show file properties such as size, permissions, creation and access dates among others:

stat file

Same as above but in a more concise way:

stat -t file

Show filesystem information:

stat -f file

Show only octal file permissions:

stat -c “%a %n” file

Show owner and group of the file:

stat -c “%U %G” file

Show the size of the file in bytes:

stat -c “%s %n” file

Cheat has helped me out a lot since I can’t memorize everything and anything related to a Linux CLI.

Super easy with #archlinux sudo pacman -S cheat-sh also with Osx brew install cheat-sh
