    I’m sure everybody seen it already:


    better !pout !cry
    better watchout
    lpr why
    santa claus < north pole >town

    cat /etc/passwd >list
    ncheck list
    ncheck list
    cat list | grep naughty >nogiftlist
    cat list | grep nice >giftlist
    santa claus < north pole >town

    who | grep sleeping
    who | grep awake
    who | egrep 'bad|good'
    for (goodness sake) {
    be good
    }

    (by Frank Carey, AT&T Bell Laboratories, 1985)
