About this product

Product Information

You've experienced the shiny, point-and-click surface of your Linux computer--now dive below and explore its depths with the power of the command line. The Linux Command Line takes you from your very first terminal keystrokes to writing full programs in Bash, the most popular Linux shell. Along the way you'll learn the timeless skills handed down by generations of gray-bearded, mouse-shunning gurus: file navigation, environment configuration, command chaining, pattern matching with regular expressions, and more. In addition to that practical knowledge, author William Shotts reveals the philosophy behind these tools and the rich heritage that your desktop Linux machine has inherited from Unix supercomputers of yore. As you make your way through the book's short, easily-digestible chapters, you'll learn how to: Create and delete files, directories, and symlinks Administer your system, including networking, package installation, and process management Use standard input and output, redirection, and pipelines Edit files with Vi, the world's most popular text editor Write shell scripts to automate common or boring tasks Slice and dice text files with cut, paste, grep, patch, and sed Once you overcome your initial "shell shock," you'll find that the command line is a natural and expressive way to communicate with your computer. Just don't be surprised if your mouse starts to gather dust.

Great book for beginners wanting to learn command line interface in Linux
This is the a great book for learning the command line in Linux. This book assumes no prior knowledge of command line interface and starts you out with the most basic of tasks. It progresses quickly and gives you exercises to play around with at the end of each chapter. The command line is SO much more powerful than any Graphical User Interface you will ever use. To quote the book, "Graphical User Interfaces make easy tasks easy, while command line interfaces make difficult tasks possible". One of the best reasons to learn the command line? Have you ever noticed that hackers never use a mouse?!

This book is very useful, I am a new user of Linux and it is very helpful and well organized. Have only used it a few times in the two weeks that I have had the book. I have other Linux books but this one is the go to book. If you need a good book to get your self more familiar with Linux I highly recommend this book.
