Basic linux(Ubuntu) commands
Working on Linux command line is very easy than you think.Now a days people just love to work on GUI(Graphical User Interface) and they are habitual to do this everyday, well of course I'm talking about normal people who don't work on Linux or server.
But working on command line is also easy.Everyone can learn it easily.This post will show you how to do some simple task on LUI(Line User Interface) which you do everyday on GUI.
Here I'll teach you some basic commands in Linux(Ubuntu) terminal.Here we go...
Command list:
- cd
- mkdir
- rmdir
cd stands for change directory.while working on command line we frequently need to change directories(folder for those who don't know what directory is).
ex.Suppose there is one file on your Desktop folder and you want to run that file in terminal then you need to go to that directory first and then and then you can run that file.Take it as you need to play one mp3 file on win7 then steps will be you'll go to my computer then open drive in which that file is and finally you'll go to that folder and double click on that file.
Type this command in terminal
cd ~/Desktop and hit enter
After typing above command you will be on Desktop directory.
~ is for home directory shortcut
To verify that you can type command pwd (present working directory).
--->mkdir
This command will create new directory in current directory.
suppose you are on Desktop and you type the following command
mkdir engineerscur
Then this will create directory named as engineerscur on Desktop.
--->rmdir
This is used to remove directory.
suppose you want to remove above created directory then..
rmdir engineerscur
which will remove that directory.
I'll post more commnads soon...
