Gnome terminal's scrollback feature

It really becomes irritating sometimes when you want to do scrollback on the terminal and the screen halts after a certain limit, there are basically two options to overcome this limitation:

•  one is either you put the output in a log file and then check the output of the terminal in the log file but this seemed too much overhead for me.
• The second option is quite simple and you can just change the scrollback setting through you Gnome Terminal itself.Just open the terminal and do:
  
  • Edit->Profiles->Default->Edit->Scrolling->Scrollback

Transfer files/folders remotely using ssh

Hi,

Today I learned hoe to transfer files and folder to a remote host by command line.Ya! I kno that we have GUI tools like filezilla but somehow its functionality is limited as today I was not able to transfer files as there was permission denied error in the filezilla.What I did...

1. Compress the folder
2. Run this command :

            scp ~/localfile_location  remote_username@ip_addr:remote_location
 
   3. You will be asked for the password.

   4. You are done.
