The guys who started it this time are sontek and his inspiration: someone named Sam. It's interesting to see what others' Top 10 or 15 commands are. It can tell you a lot about that person. Unlike the way the keep their house or what kind of vehicle they drive you won't get a picture of their personality, but you can see how a computer fits into their life. Is it a hobby? Are they software or web developers? Do they make their living with it? What kind of distribution is it? What is their favorite editor? etc... Although not as revealing as in the past, with all the gui stuff being used these days, but it's still fun.
What are yours? Here's the code: history | awk '{print $2}' | awk 'BEGIN {FS="|"} {print $1}'|sort|uniq -c | sort -n | tail -n 15 | sort -nr
