What the Shell? Hands on with the command line.

6 Responses to What the Shell? Hands on with the command line.

  1. It’s one of the most useful things I learned back in the 90s, I must say, though I still run up against the limits of my knowledge all the time. I still wish I knew how to grep better.

  2. In addition to the command line, the Man pages (manual) are not always that easy to parse either. It would be helpful to know how to invoke them and then decode the explanations.

    Another tip would be to briefly touch on the varied dialects of Unix, Linux, etc., etc..
