You are not logged in. Your edit will be placed in a queue until it is peer reviewed.

We welcome edits that make the post easier to understand and more valuable for readers. Because community members review edits, please try to make the post substantially better than how you found it, for example, by fixing grammar or adding additional resources and hyperlinks.

Thank you! This doesn't really fit the use case that I had in mind, but it is a better solution for 99% of the time. Nice work!

Kira, I put my useful scripts in my [dotfiles git repo](). Would you mind if I put this script there as well? Of course, it is attributed to you and to this post.
