UNIX common commands

[Bug_Master]

Hi, this is my first "tutorial" ever, this is a reference guide to common Unix Commands and it's intended to help newbies with Unix.

If you have any question or sugestion please feel free to post here.


I used Unix Complete as reference and man.


I hope this helps,

Pretty good reference, but you know what would make it outstanding for newbies? Cross-reference the Actions with the Commands. Most newbies when they're starting out don't know the name of the command they need, just the outcome they want to produce. For example:

Standard:
cmp -- compare 2 files
Cross-referenced:
Comparing files -- cmp, diff, dircmp (directories only)

Oh, and one more thing. I've only seen the haltsys command used with SCO Unix. The shutdown command might be a bit more widespread. Great 1st tutorial, though!

you're right, the problem is that it was made a bit in a hurry because i'm in time of school exams and have to study, but i'll make a update soon as i can. 8)
