Get full path for a file.

Time for another oneliner. I often need to get the full path of a file.
This can be done using the following command:

readlink -f myfile

Text disappearing from context menus in Gnome

I'm having an issue where most text in Gnome disappears or gets corrupted. I'm yet to find the root cause.
In the meantime the best quickfix is to restart Gnome.

To do so, press alt + F2, type r and press enter.
