Recover an off-screen window:
No offense to mon copains Quebecois (did I say that right?), but a particular quirk affects PCs for a unilinguist Anglo like me when the Region setting in Windows is set to Canada (or I suppose any bilingual country).
I've had the annoying experience of holding down "Control-Shift" for more than a couple of seconds, say while I'm trying to decide if I want to paste plain text into a Google Chrome field (using Ctrl-Shift-V), then suddenly I'm getting accented characters all over the place.
This is Windows being helpful to us Canucks, by switching the keyboard layout from Canadian English to Canadian French, which would be great, if a) I had a Canadian French keyboard, and b) I knew how to write in Canadian French on that keyboard, and c) I actually wanted to write in Canadian French!
Well, I discovered how to turn off that 'helpful' keyboard shift:
C:\>sqlplus user/pass @myfile.sql.echo select count(*) from mytable; | sqlplus user/pass-iregex matches a pattern in the whole path, and the pattern is a POSIX basic regex:C:\>find ./ -iregex '.*\.\(xslt\^|xml\)' -type f -print | xargs grep -i "staus"find matches a file path, the path is piped to xargs, which hands it off to grep to search for the string "staus" - which I want to replace with "status" (but not here :).

C:\>road | find /i "Perl" to find out where Perl is hiding.wraps the %PATH% ENV var in double quotes and then replaces all the semicolon separators with a double-quote, space, double quote. This effectively puts double quotes around all the paths (so spaces won't give any troubles) then use the for loop to list each newly double-quoted string.

dir /ad c:\temp, which lists only the directories in C:\temp. (Thanks to SteveGTR for that example.)
echo this pipe will print ^| but this one won't |
echo and this will print one caret ^^
