  # Start a HTTP server which serves Python docs
  pydoc -p 8888 & gnome-open http://localhost:8888

  # put current directory in LAN quickly
  python -m SimpleHTTPServer

Example 2

$ clf recursive line count

  # Recursive Line Count
  find ./ -not -type d | xargs wc -l | cut -c 1-8 | awk '{total += $1} END {print total}'

  # Recursive Line Count
  find * -type f -not -name ".*" | xargs wc -l

  # Get Total Line Count Of All Files In Subdirectory (Recursive)
  find . -type f -name "*.*" -exec cat {} > totalLines 2> /dev/null \; && wc -l totalLines && rm totalLines
