10 Some useful UNIX commands
The commands described in this section are executed by typing text lines in a console window (see
Sections 2 and 3). The descriptions are brief, just giving the name of the command and a one-line
explanation, but you have easy acess to more information by using the on-line documentation.
Online documentation
The online manual page system is a standard Unix feature, which you may use if you need information
about a particular command. For example, to get a description of the Unix command ls, type “man
ls” in an console window. Use the spacebar to move a page forward in the text, and use the arrow
keys for scrolling. Type q to quit the manual page.
