How can I execute a Vim selection or range in bash without replacing it?
This is just fantastic! It even works with any program, I just tried it with some Rebol code: :terminal rebol , and it worked like a charm!

Is there a way to change shortcuts in midnight commander?
@JackLeEmmerdeur I'm not sure what I did, but my config file is exactly the same as mentioned above (apart from the newline characters missing of course) and it is working like a charm now. I have no idea when it began working (a few years, I'm sure) and why. Sorry for the lack of precision...

Moving (efficiently) vertically in Vim
Just a little precision: ^ will get you to the first non-blank character of the line; 0 will get you to the first character of the line, blank or not.

Remove key from known_hosts
For some strange reason, the hostname is written in lowercase in my known_hosts, although the real hostname is UPPER-CASE. I'm running an expect script, and unfortunately, the bash upper to lowercase variable expansion ( ${hostname,,} ) is not working. I've tried to find an -ignore-case or equivalent in ssh-keygen: no luck.

tmux - scroll up/down with shift + page up/down into a pane
I just press Enter and tmux just sends me back to the prompt at the bottom of the terminal.

gVim: How to open multiple files in its own tab at once?
Same thing just happened to me with vim 9.0 on Devuan 4. It seems to be a vim limitation.

How to download all dependencies of RPM to offline installation on SUSE 12 SP15
There is no yum, no. I'll try to install it with zypper.

I'm in a container with an opensuse, I haven't been able to find an image for the SLES 12 SP5, which I'm targeting.

Apparently not: latitude:/ # zypper --requires-pkg The flag --requires-pkg is not known.

How to download all dependencies of RPM to offline installation on SUSE 12 SP15
Well, it was first mentioned that it wasn't the good place to ask that question... The proposed solution seemed quite "heavy": I have a low-quality Internet connection, so downloading an ISO may take a few hours if not days. All I want is to install some simple utilities, so just accessing a repo from within a container containing a base Suse would be my preferred choice.

What is crtc and how many outputs can I enable using xrandr?
W H A T ?... ;-D How do you achieve such "cooking"? By using xrandr, or by, as you say, "hacking the drivers"?

Is there a way to change shortcuts in midnight commander?
I've been trying to get those good old shortcuts that my old fingers were used to on Norton Commander, and I put that in my ~/.config/mc/mc.keymap : cat .config/mc/mc.keymap [panel] SortByName = ctrl-f3 SortByExt = ctrl-f4 SortBySize = ctrl-f6 SortByMTime = ctrl-f5 But hélas, this does not have any effect. What did I do wrong?

Defining keyboard shortcuts involving the Fn key
Well, on my Dell machine with a Debian 10, xev doesn't show anything when Fn key is pressed.
