More One Liners

I recently did a TipSheet column listing some of my favorite quick, one line commands. Reader Wayne was kind enough to share with me his list of oft-used one-liners which he graciously offered to share. I have not tested many of these personally, but you always test things in a non-production environment anyway, right? The command entry should all be on one line. I've wrapped lines just to get everything displayed in the post.
