rosetta-stone

You sound about the same era as me. I'm 35 now, have been using Linux since 2001 until now. Just remember, that when you started using Linux, it was about 10 years old. It's now been 20 years since then - double the time has passed since you started, compared to what came before it. Some stuff is going to change. Sure some of those commands come from older Unixes but the point still stands :) Some of your complaints are practical but 2 specific ones I'd note: "ip" has been the tool you wanted to use since even the mid 2000s - ifconfig wouldn't even show you every IP on an interface since then unless it had an alias. Something that may help you make the transition is the "-brief" (-br for short) switch which gives a very compact simple output that is a little easier to visually parse. If you're using a systemd-networkd system, "networkctl

Thanks for your feedback. Both issues you mentioned - the missing 'd' in '/etc/systemd' and Ubuntu being updated for systemd (and me forgetting that Ubuntu's old SysVInit was different than Red Hat's) are now fixed. If there's anything else wrong, just edit: https://github.com/certsimple/rosetta-stone/blob/master/rose... The doc was made from scratch last year with a massive amount of original research. SmartOS and OpenBSD folks have already contributed. Saying its 'almost as many glaring deficiencies and errors' is wrong.

Author here. Since Brendan Gregg mentioned this project in his Solaris to Linux post earlier today, and the original was on HN earlier today, I thought HN might like to see a Rosetta Stone updated for current gen OSs. Included are: - Red Hat Enterprise Linux (and CentOS) 7 - Debian/Ubuntu - Arch Linux - macOS - OpenBSD - FreeBSD - SmartOS - Windows (assuming PowerShell per recent Windows versions) You can also filter out only the ones you care about. You can read about justification for stuff like treating different distros as different OSs at https://github.com/certsimple/rosetta-stone. If you want to contribute, just edit https://github.com/certsimple/rosetta-stone/blob/master/rose... We've already had a bunch of SmartOS and OpenBSD folk add contributions.

That's certainly a lot cleaner than using the WSDL implementation. I've bumped the release on npm and used this instead - thank you. If anyone else on HN wants to add anything, the source is just markdown, so you can hack away (gulp does the HTML building and JS does the interactivity): https://github.com/certsimple/rosetta-stone/blob/master/rose...
