回车的妙用

今天看到一篇颇为有趣的文章：The Pinky Finger habits Of Experienced Sysadmins.

其中提到一个观点，在输入命令之前，应该多敲几下回车，以便将当前命令与上一命令的输出区分开来,这样可以方便操作者看会之前的操作内容。

比如，下面这一陀是没有分隔的输出:

root@server:~# apt-get update
Hit:1 http://mirror.memset.com/ubuntu xenial InRelease
Get:2 http://mirror.memset.com/ubuntu xenial-updates InRelease [102 kB]
Get:3 http://mirror.memset.com/ubuntu xenial-security InRelease [102 kB]

The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:

Use 'apt autoremove' to remove them.

  easy-rsa
The following NEW packages will be installed:

Need to get 0 B/421 kB of archives.
After this operation, 1026 kB of additional disk space will be used.

然后是分隔后的输出:

root@server:~#
root@server:~#
root@server:~# apt-get update

Get:2 http://mirror.memset.com/ubuntu xenial-updates InRelease [102 kB]

恩，看起来分隔后的命令输出确实要容易阅读的多.
