Check Price and Token Limits in ZapGPT with OpenAI Provider
ZapGPT is a CLI and API tool to interact with LLMs like OpenAI, Groq, Claude, Perplexity, and more. If you’re using the OpenAI provider, you can easily check the price per token for each supported model — critical info if you’re optimizing for cost or want to dynamically switch models based on available context or budget.
Also, you can use the OpeNRouter provider to check the length of context if you are using some huge context like a big file as input :).

Working with Gzip Files in Linux: Seamless Integration with Popular Tools
Gzip is a widely used compression tool in the Linux ecosystem, offering efficient file size reduction for storage and transfer. But did you know that many Linux applications can work directly with .gz
files—no manual decompression required? This capability streamlines workflows and saves disk space.
Why Use Gzip?
- Reduces file size for faster transfers and less storage.
- Preserves file integrity during downloads and uploads.
- Widely supported across Linux distributions and tools.
Using Gzipped Files Directly
Many popular Linux applications can open and process gzip-compressed files transparently. Here are some notable examples:

Why Every Hacker Should Master Vim Macros and Registers
If you’re deep into hacking, pentesting, or security research, you know that automation is key. Repetitive tasks like manipulating payloads, encoding/decoding strings, or tweaking shell scripts can become tedious. Enter Vim macros and registers! These powerful features let you record and replay keystrokes, making your workflow insanely efficient.
No that I dont use IDE’s the likes of Visual Studio code (sometimes I do). However they can never match the raw power of vi/vim/nvim or any of the vim family of editors. To reap the maximum benefit, you have to learn the basics of using the editor in normal mode ( which is by the not the editing mode).
