The Command Line - Your Computing Co-Pilot
If you’ve only used Windows, it’s possible you may have neglected one of it’s best hidden gems, the Windows Command Line. While it was very powerful and had many features, it wasn’t quite what Linux and Unix users had been reaping the benefits of for years. It extended upon the original DOS command set, which was always limited to begin with.
Now that you’ve become interested in a Linux distribution, learn early on to integrate your work liberally with the use of the shell’s command line, and you’ll quickly discover you will be saving yourself a lot of time *and* frustration.
The shell’s very powerful, and I obviously can’t cover everything here in this one post, expect to see more helpful guides as far as simple as keystrokes, an array of helpful commands, aliases, links, on to more advanced topics like scripting.
