You can easily connect to an open network though

iwconfig wlan0 essid "THE NETWORK NAME"

Closed networks work with wpa_supplicant. You normally send a configuration file with that but you can simulate the file with a named pipe:

wpa_supplicant -iwlan0 -c <(echo -e 'network={\n ssid="THE NETWORK NAME" \n psk="THE PASSWORD" \n}') -B

wlan0 is your network interface name. -B means go into the background. The \ns in the configuration file is needed sadly and so we pass -e to echo to interpret them.

iwconfig should show your new connection but perhaps only after a second.

After this dhclient wlan0 will get you a dhcp address and you'll be ready to go. You may want to kill any prior instances of dhclient.

If you want to use the command line and iwlist scan to list all the open wifi networks you can:

a=`iwlist wlan0 scan | grep 'ESSID\|key:' | sed 's/.*ESSID:"\(.*\)".*/\1/g' | sed 's/.*key:\(.*\).*/key:\1/g' | sed 's/\n//'`

This first lists all the networks and grabs the network name and whether there's a key on this network.

This gives us a list of network's key state and the network name.

Let's now join the network key state and the network name into one line with sed 'N;... and swap the variables around to show the network name first.

echo "$a" | sed 'N;s/\n/,/' | awk -F ',' '{print $2" ("$1")"}'

Put these two lines in a bash script and run that to see all the networks and whether they're open networks or not.

First, go to https://api.imgur.com/oauth2/addclient and register as a client. Create a new client and you'll eventually get a Client ID and a Client secret.

Now take the client ID, and use this curl command:

curl --request POST --url https://api.imgur.com/3/image --header 'authorization: Client-ID YOUR_CLIENTID_HERE'   
--header 'content-type: multipart/form-data;' -F "image=@/LOCATION/OF/THE/IMAGE.png"

You should get some JSON back like this:

{"data":{"id":"SOME_ID","title":null,"description":null,"datetime":1511088894,"type":"image\/png",
"width":256,"height":256,"size":7541,...,"deletehash":"SOME_DELETE_HASH","name":"",
"link":"https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/THE_URL.png"},"success":true,"status":200}

First make sure you have a client id through registering at https://api.imgur.com/oauth2/addclient

Then make a command to create an album:

curl --request POST   --url https://api.imgur.com/3/album   
--header 'authorization: Client-ID YOUR_CLIENT_ID'

This will return an anonymous public album. Note the 'deletehash' id in the below:

{"data":{"id":"SOME_ID","deletehash":"SOME_DELETE_HASH"},"success":true,"status":200}

The empty album is available at https://imgur.com/a/SOME_ID

Now let's upload an image to that album. Because it's public and anonymous we need to use the deletehash as the album ID:

curl --request POST   --url https://api.imgur.com/3/image   --header 'authorization: Client-ID YOUR_CLIENT_ID'   
--header 'content-type: multipart/form-data;' -F "album=THE_DELETE_HASH" -F "image=@/PATH/TO/THE/IMAGE.png"

The json returned should say everything is okay. Upload a couple of images to that album and you should be able to see them at https://imgur.com/a/SOME_ID.

You can get a json response of all the images in that album through `curl --request GET --url https://api.imgur.com/3/album/SOME_ID --header 'authorization: Client-ID YOUR_CLIENT_ID'. It will include the array of images:

"images":[{"id":"ANOTHER_ID",... link":"https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/ANOTHER_ID.png"},...]

The link property is the direct link to the image without all the imgur.com html around it.

First apt-get install xmlstarlet. And let's say we have this XML file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<kml xmlns="http://www.opengis.net/kml/2.2">
  <Document>
    <name>Yes</name>
  </Document>
  <Document>
    <name>No</name>
  </Document>
  <Document>
    <name>Maybe</name>
  </Document>  
</kml>

We can use xmlstarlet sel to select elements. But first we need to tell it about the name space, so xmlstarlet sel -N x="http://www.opengis.net/kml/2.2".

Now let's use -t -v to start using some XPath. In our case /x:kml/x:Document/x:name. So in full xmlstarlet sel -N x="http://www.opengis.net/kml/2.2" -t -v "/x:kml/x:Document/x:name" the_xml_file.xml. This will print:

Yes
No
Maybe
