Sometimes we are forced to delete files as a superuser which places them in the trash but doesn't purge them from the system. Then when we try and empty trash as our lowly normal user we get a whole bunch of errors thrown up at us. In this situation it's handy to know that the trash folder is located at $HOME/.local/share/Trash

Now we can use this command :

rm -rf ~/.local/share/Trash/*

The rm command removes (delete) files or directories.

in other words change

           {% trans %}Submitted by {{ author_name }} on {{ date }}{% endtrans %}in /core/themes/bartik/templates/node.html.twig

to

           {% set createdDate = node.getCreatedTime|date('j F Y') %}

     {% trans %}By {{ author_name }} on {{ createdDate }} {% endtrans %}

and save.

To use avconv to watermark a video first create a PNG the same dimensions as the video file with everything but the desired watermark set to transparent.

avconv -i input -vf 'movie=videowatermark.png [watermark];[in][watermark] overlay=0:0 [out]' -c:v libx264 -preset slow -crf 20 -c:a libmp3lame -b:a 192k output.mp4

Remember to use single quotes

 

Reference.

<ol>

{% for key, value in _context %}

<li>{{ key }}</li>

{% endfor %}

</ol>

 

{% node--type-[type] %}
{% node--[type].html.twig %}

 

 

To convert every .m4a file in a directory to an mp3

$ for file in *.m4a; do avconv -i "$file" "${file/.m4a/.mp3}" done

The ${file/.m4a/.mp3} takes the file name and removes the .m4a suffix and replaces it with the .mp3 suffix. The format is deduced from the extension

To add more features

$ for file in *.m4a; do avconv -i "$file" -vn -qscale 1 "${file/.m4a/.mp3}" done
