In this section, we're going to learn some helpful Linux and Windows commands that we can enter from
the command line, if you're already really familiar with Linux and with Windows command line interfaces,
then you can skip ahead to the next section.
But I wanted to spend some time making sure that you can get around in the environments that we've set
up so that you can use simple commands like listing a directory, changing directories, finding out
what kind of operating system you're running on, history, pseudo make directories, copying moving
files, using help files or the manual files showing where you're working, echoing text to the screen
or to a file using simple text editors like Nanao and Notepad showing the contents of a file to the
screen and then finding files, locating files, doing some simple network maintenance like doing a
ping or an IV config to find out where you are on a network and then showing all your environment variables.
We're going to see how to do each of these for Linux and then we're going to see how to do them on a
Windows command line as well.
There's almost an equivalent for everything across the two, but we'll get a chance to see both of these
as we go.
If you already feel pretty comfortable with Linux, you can jump ahead.
If not, get this screen up here so that you get it as a reference.
And I'll post a PDF to go with these these lessons.
So let's get started with some Linux command line entries.
