Re: How to use terminal of Linux?
Type "help" at the prompt:
I don't have the Debian help handy, as I am using OpenBsd at the moment, but
it is a use full command, if the OS has a good "help" page, usually any linux system will have a help page, and manuals.
===However recently we had a beginner, and saddly, what Microsoft store is calling "Debian" and offers,
does not even come with manual pages or the 'man' command.
(more on that :http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=137960 )===
But that is not really Linux, nor the topic,... any way:
==============
Example:
It has been so long, but if my memory serves my right , (often it doesn'),
seems like on Debian, the 'help' command gives a page with a list of commands, then you use the 'man' command:
For example the 'ls' command, listed in the help menu;
Then you can also write scripts and "mini programs", make the executable, and add additional commands, or look for packages with utilities that will include additional commands,... Unix,Linux , and other unix like systems are very user friendly in this was, you can use the terminal to do anything,
How to learn to use it (the commandline) ? PRACTICE , the more you use it, the friendlier it gets, read the manual pages, I like and enjoy reading them, and the more one reads them, the more sense they start making, at first they may almost seem like gibberish, but with time, and more reading, it gets easier.
Kind of like learning a new language, you speak to the computer, with commands, it will talk to you and explain with it's manuals, also the error messages, often tell you why the command did not work,....
I often forget things and made a script to help me remember who I am talking to when I am using the terminal, so I just ask it,... :
If I type 'help', it shows me a list of the basic commands, that I often can not remember,... pretty convenient isn't it ?

HELP(1) General Commands Manual HELP(1)
NAME
help - help for new users and administrators
DESCRIPTION
This document is meant to familiarize new users and system administrators
with OpenBSD and, if necessary, UNIX in general.
/tmp/man.GP1Z2VmM6X (6%)...skipping...
HELP(1) General Commands Manual HELP(1)
NAME
help - help for new users and administrators
DESCRIPTION
This document is meant to familiarize new users and system administrators
with OpenBSD and, if necessary, UNIX in general.
Firstly, a wealth of information is contained within the system manual
pages. In UNIX, the man(1) command is used to view them. Type man man
for instructions on how to use it properly. Pay especially close
attention to the -k option.
Other OpenBSD references include the FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
located at
https://www.openbsd.org/faq/,
which is mostly intended for administrators and assumes the reader
possesses a working knowledge of UNIX. There are also mailing lists in
place where questions are fielded by OpenBSD developers and other users;
see
https://www.openbsd.org/mail.html.
System administrators should have already read the afterboot(8) man page
which explains a variety of tasks that are typically performed after the
first system boot. When configuring any aspect of the system, first
consider any possible security implications your changes may have.
The Unix shell
After logging in, some system messages are typically displayed, and then
the user is able to enter commands to be processed by the shell program.
The shell is a command-line interpreter that reads user input (normally
from a terminal) and executes commands. There are many different shells
available; OpenBSD ships with csh(1), ksh(1), and sh(1). Each user's
shell is indicated by the last field of their corresponding entry in the
system password file (/etc/passwd).
Basic Unix commands
man Interface to the system manual pages. For any of the commands
listed below, type man command for detailed information on what
it does and how to use it.
pwd Print working directory. Files are organized in a hierarchy
(see hier(7)) called a tree. This command will indicate in
which directory you are currently located.
cd Change working directory. Use this command to navigate
throughout the file hierarchy. For example, type cd / to
change the working directory to the root.
ls List directory contents. Type ls -l for a detailed listing.
cat Although it has many more uses, cat filename will print the
contents of a plain-text file to the screen.
vi Edit text files. For example, vi filename. See also mg(1).
mkdir Make a directory. For example, mkdir dirname.
rmdir Remove a directory.
rm Remove files. Files are generally only removable by their
owners. See the chmod(1) command for information on file
permissions.
chmod Change file modes, including permissions. It is not
immediately obvious how to use this command; please read its
manual page carefully, as proper file permissions, especially
on system files, are vital in maintaining security and
integrity.
cp Copy files.
mv Move and rename files.
ps List active processes. Most UNIX-based operating systems,
including OpenBSD, are multitasking, meaning many programs
share system resources at the same time. A common usage is ps
-auxw, which will display information about all active
processes.
kill Kill processes. Used mostly for terminating run-
away/unresponsive programs, but also used to signal programs
for requesting certain operations (e.g., re-read their
configuration).
date Print the current system date and time.
mail Access mailbox.
exit Log out of the system.
When a command is entered, it is first checked to see if it is built-in
to the shell. If not, the shell looks for the command in any directories
contained within the PATH environment variable (see environ(7)). If the
command is not found, an error message is printed. Otherwise, the shell
runs the command, passing it any arguments specified on the command line.
Shell built-in commands do not have their own manual page, so it's
necessary to read the manual page for the user's shell. Tools such as
which(1) and "whence", a ksh(1) built-in command, can be used to see what
commands are being executed.
SEE ALSO
csh(1), ksh(1), man(1), whatis(1), whereis(1), which(1), afterboot(8)
HISTORY
This manual page was written by Aaron Campbell <aaron@openbsd.org> and
first appeared in OpenBSD 2.6.
OpenBSD 6.2 July 13, 2017
seems like on Debian, the 'help' command gives a page with a list of commands, then you use the 'man' command:
For example the 'ls' command, listed in the help menu;
If you need more details on using the 'ls' command:ls List directory contents. Type ls -l for a detailed listing.
Code: Select all
man ls
I am not going to post the entire manual, it is several pages,.....LS(1) General Commands Manual LS(1)
NAME
ls - list directory contents
SYNOPSIS
ls [-1AaCcdFfgHhikLlmnopqRrSsTtux] [file ...]
DESCRIPTION
For each operand that names a file of a type other than directory, ls
displays its name as well as any requested, associated information. For
each named directory, ls displays the names of files contained within
that directory, as well as any requested, associated information.
If no operands are given, the contents of the current directory are
displayed. If more than one operand is given, non-directory operands are
displayed first; directory and non-directory operands are sorted
separately and in lexicographical order. By default, ls lists one entry
per line to standard output; the exceptions are to terminals or when the
-C, -m, or -x options are specified.
The options are as follows:
-1 (The numeric digit "one".) Force output to be one entry per line.
This is the default when output is not to a terminal.----- snip ---
Then you can also write scripts and "mini programs", make the executable, and add additional commands, or look for packages with utilities that will include additional commands,... Unix,Linux , and other unix like systems are very user friendly in this was, you can use the terminal to do anything,

Re: How to use terminal of Linux?
all these are good answers.
i must say, i learned most by taking an existing script and
a) see how it ticks, and how the creator coded it
b) make modifications to it to suit my needs
in other words, learning by doing.

Re: How to use terminal of Linux?
Yes it would be another topic, but before you ask you should read these first:
Please Read.. What we expect you have already Done.
==== and:
Forum guidelines. Please read before first post!
====
With that said, for example, the question you asked here, "How to use terminal of Linux?"
How to use terminal of Linux?
This could have been answered by doing a search, and reading some of the many results.
=== Please don't be a"help vampire"
Try using a search engine, and some logic, for example this question,
" how to install programs", to start with, that won't work well, be specific
"how to install programs on Debian" (if you are using Debian)
Usually on Linux distros, we call them "packages" and you need to include the distro, just asking "How do I install programs on Linux" all though that will get quite a few results, each Linux distro has different methods of installing packages (programs )
Example: How do I install programs on Linux
To get better more specific results, use the distro name:
" How do I install programs on Debian ?"
Try it , and you will see there is plenty of documentation for Debian.
There are many different text editors, for Linux, and each one has it's own manual, which you should read before asking on a forum, "How do I use a text editor ? ",...Example: If you use "nano", and have it installed ,At the command line prompt simply type :
Replace "nano" with the name of the editor, IE: "man leafpad", "man vi",etc.
Or paste into your favourite search engine:
So that ends this lesson.
====
There is no real reason any one should have to write long or even short tutorials, just for you, when there are all ready 100s available online, if you just learn how to use a search engine.

Re: How to use terminal of Linux?
I studied stuff from books and online resources such as others have mentioned here, and I took a lot of notes. Learning to use man pages was essential for me. Also, keep practicing, and give it time. And it's very helpful to learn to use bash history so you won't have to keep re-typing commands all the time.

Re: How to use terminal of Linux?
Let me add that, at this point in the development of Linux in general and Debian in particular, extensive CLI skills are not necessary for any but developers. My CLI knowledge is little better than rudimentary, and I've been using Linux for nearly 20 years now, more and more. Terminal is not going away, even DOS still exists in Windows, but it's less and less a daily routine. My poor skills are adequate to fine-tune the Stretch installation on my old Dell laptop. So what I'm saying is that you don't need to be a computer science major to use Linux as a daily driver anymore.

The first page show results of years 2017 and 2018.

For Nano, it won't matter much. Actually "man nano" would probably be the best place to start. If it isn't installed,

Re: How to use terminal of Linux?
Agree, the wiki would be the best place to start, especially if nano is not all ready installed.
year it is.
It is best to use the more recent results in some cases, but also often
the top results are the worse, and mostly advertisements, or SEO promotions,
The so called SEO engineers have done a good job of spamming the search engines, and messing them up, to the extent that it is questionable as to how useful they really are. The mess they have made, is a big reason many people do not want to use them, but that is another topic,..
Do not use " marks in your search string.
And Google, is ok, but you probably will get a lot of advertisements, and not much for useful results.
Example: Copy/paste the key words
No "" quotation marks
How to use the nano editor
Nano is a very simple editor, and has been used for a real long time, it has not
changed much over the years, so most any results would still apply.
It also has it's own "help" menu, "ctrl + G" or ^G the ^ symbol means the
"CTRL" key,...
DO NOT use nano as root, until you get familiar with it, also it is all ways a good idea to use the 'cp' command, and copy the file you plan to edit.
For example, I want to edit: wget.txt, in my home dir /home/garry
Note, I use 'pwd' to see what directory I am in.
After copying the original file, to a -org name, (it can be any name, but I find the -org easy to remember, "org" for original), any way, after copying the file,
you are ready to edit the original one. or what ever the file name is.
Down at the bottom of the screen there is a menu of sorts, to help you.

use the linux terminal. It mostly is a matter of what you are comfortable with.
I am a far cry from being a "computer science major", in fact I stopped going to school at about 11 years old, 5th grade,... never have taken any computer science courses.
How ever , when I did start using computers, at that time we did not have anything more then a command line terminal, ..the modern GUIs,etc. did not exist yet, and to this day I am more comfortable using a terminal,..
I like the XFCE4-terminal the most, but again that is a matter of preference.
I am not a developer either, all though I do write my own scripts, and have written a few personal "programs", one does not need to be a computer science major to do those things.
I will admit, the first time I logged into a Unix server, and started communicating with some of the "computer science" people, majors, a few really gave me a bad time, especially about my spelling.
Then one day I sent them a message, with proof, showing the code I used, "Hi guys, I don't need your permission to do anything any more, I just now gave myself administrator privileges, and can login as root, I can do anything I want to.", and I included the code I used to get root access. The response was , "Ok , OK, but please don't do it that way, we do have a way to do this that is best for every one ---snip--" The OP went on to explain to me more about how they preferred to do things, and why a "hack" was not such a good idea, they did start working with me, instead of against me,..also they started doing more work of their security settings, etc,... within a few days it was no longer that easy to get root access to the server, any way long story and years ago,about 40 years ago, geez, I am getting old.

The reason I've had time to be so active here this last week is that I just had a new cataract-free lens installed in my eye. Back to work tomorrow...GarryRicketson wrote:geez, I am getting old.

Re: How to use terminal of Linux?
Forgive me, but I will never understand the essence of this question. To create a new topic, ask a question when you can use Google services. Well, if you're a simple troll, then everything comes to its place.

Re: How to use terminal of Linux?
there's oh-too-many people who think that forums are just some form of "live google". it's not really trolling, just ignorance and a dose of egocentrism.None1975 wrote:Forgive me, but I will never understand the essence of this question.

i don't mind the ignorance if it can be cured through gentle nudging towards search engine usage.
it also is a little difficult to separate the wheat from the chaff when you're new to all this.
i admit, the first post on this thread is way too vague ("i don't even really know myself what i am asking. can you help me?"), but op has asked clearer questions later on.
