    How to download a desired clip from a long online YouTube video

    Hello. Recently there was a four minute clip, from a three hour documentary, that I wanted to download (the documentary was online at YouTube). I did not wish to take the time (and bandwidth) to download the entire documentary. So, I researched and discovered there is a way, via both...

    WHAT ARE YOUR TOP COMMAND LINE APPS??????

    ffmpeg is one. apt (I use Debian) is another. locate (along with updatedb) is useful. pip (for installing some stuff, like youtube-dl) is good. youtube-dl is good. calcurse is a program that I used to use, and it's great (though I haven't been using it lately). curl is also useful for...
