It is a great resource on learning the command line and refreshing your memory.

If you take a look but find it confusing, bring your questions to the session and we’ll answer them together!

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..

I still wish I knew how to grep better.

As you know I stumble my way around Linux, but I could use some help. Count me in!
