In this section you can find a couple of shell scripts, which you may find useful. There are two scripts for making Apache virtual host and Drupal installations on-the-fly. The first one is for making virtual Apache hosts and drupal installations in a separate web location. The second one is for making Apache virtual hosts and Drupal installations from a single code base. The second script makes a new configuration folder inside sites/ where the Drupal configuration is stored. The first script creates a complete base of drupal files. In order to use any of these two scripts you need root access to your web server.

Besides this there is a script for downloading Drupal modules and moving them to your module Dir in a easy manner, just copy the URL and script will do the rest, and then log onto your site and enable your new module. There is also a script for doing the same with themes. Find a cool looking theme, run the script, paste the URL, and the theme will be installed. Go to your site and enable your new theme.
