Getting Started wth UNIX
A little totorial for those that are getting started with UNIX:
3 things a DOS user will notice right off the bat:
You must log in
All the commands are different - AND case senstive (lowercase)
It's a multiuser system, so you have more commands than DOS
To log in, you type in your Username and password given to you by your sysadmin. Once you are logged in you will see a command prompt. On my UNIX box it looks like this: > Here are some simple commands and what they do:
logout - logs you out
cp - copies a file
mv - moves a file
rm - deletes a file
pwd - shows your location
cd - change directory
mkdir - makes a directory
rmdir - deletes a directory
cat - displays the contents of a file
more - keeps files from running off the screen
man - displays help on any command (the man pages)
Well, that's enough for now I'll write more later
