Creating a Keyboard shortcut to Terminal

By -
In Kali linux , the keyboard shortcut to Terminal is missing by default, that was a convenience that pentesters miss the most. We had this available by default in backtrack.

One way to open terminal with keyboard is to press Alt + F2 , a command window will open , and write " gnome-terminal " and press Enter.

Second way is to create a keyboard shortcut permanently to the terminal.

For this, we will goto Settings > Devices > Keyboard.

In the shortcuts section, scroll down to the end of the list , we will find a " + " sign, that is for adding a new shortcut.

We have three text boxes here to fill.

1- Name : Enter the Name for the Shortcut e.g. "Terminal".

2- Command :Enter the command for the program. In our case its terminal. The command for terminal is " gnome-terminal".

3- Shortcut :  press the buttons you want to use as a keyboard shortcut for the above command. Here it can be "Ctrl+T" or " Super+T" or you can add any shortcut as per your convenience. and click add.

Thats it, now you can open terminal any time by using the keyboard shortcut.

Decode Base64 and ROT13 in Linux Terminal

By -
Below are the commands , to Decode and Encoded text from Base64 and Rot13. It is a handy and easy technique required in CTFs. Alternatively we can also google and use any website offering decoding of text from these two types. But in terminal we can decode it quickly and save our precious time. From Base64 we use the function base64 and option -d (for decode). $ base64 -d data.txt From ROT13 (also called as rotated 13 times) we use the function tr (for translation). the text must be echo first and piped into tr with two strings as arguments. $ echo " GUR CNFFJBEQ VF 5GR8L4QETPESPK8HTQJHRK8XSP6X2RHH" |tr '[A-Za-z]' '[N-ZA-Mn-za-m]' -574r570rm
