Talk:Cheatsheet

the table is overly long and requires scrolling left and right, not sure how to make the page show it all without the need for scrolling --Makefu (talk) 22:06, 1 December 2017 (UTC)

• I added a notice to use the Vector wiki theme for easier viewing of this specific page. We can remove it once the problem is resolved. Gmarmstrong (talk) 10:15, 1 June 2018 (UTC)

I'm sure it's a bit early to convert this to use the new `nix` command but wanted to get a sense of when people think a good time for that would be. Perhaps we could start building the content on another page now, linked from this one? --Abrooks (talk) 17:45, 10 April 2018 (UTC)

• due to the fact that nix2 is now the new default for 18.03 and 17.09 is unsupported i think we should just rewrite the parts which need rewriting. also most of the stuff should still *just work* --Makefu (talk) 17:48, 10 April 2018 (UTC)

Am I ok to add a big caveat to the `nix-env -iA` example, stating that it should not be used? I've just run into my umphteenth case of "user confused by package not updating because they installed it into their profile", and I suspect a lot of this usage comes from people finding this cheat sheet: https://discourse.nixos.org/t/test-locally-changed-package-that-is-used-by-a-systemd-service/18408/9 --TLATER (talk) 11:19, 30 March 2022 (UTC)

The search commands don't really work. Most things that can be installed will not be listed by these commands.
