Control Characters

Changing your Password

passwd:

System Directories 文件操作

终端切换

Windows: ALT+F1, ALT+F2

Pathnames

路径名是目录名的序列(以/ 分隔)，用于标识目录的位置

Absolute Pathnames

树的顶部(根)和感兴趣的目录之间的目录名称序列。

/bin

/etc/terminfo

/home/ad

/home/student/proj1

Relative Pathnames

从当前所在目录到感兴趣目录的目录名称的顺序。

proj1 if you are in student

student/proj1 if you are in home

Working with Directories

Moving between Directories

student到proj1中

cd proj1：（current working directory.）

pwd ：Print name of current working directory

Move back to directory student (the parent directory):cd .. (返回上一级目录)

proj1到proj2

..是上一级目录

../proj2 is a relative pathname

Investigate the System

cat file 命令用于连接文件并打印到标准输出设备上

List file

ls Directory listing

ls List current dir.

ls /etc List /etc

ls -F -F option shows types

Making / Deleting / Renaming Directories

Creating a Text File

cat > file

这将把你在键盘上输入的文本输入到文件中，直到你输入^D (CONTROL和D一起)

Listing Files

cat file List the file

more file List the file a screen at a time. Type spacebar to go on; ^C to stop

less file Like more but more powerful

head file List the first few lines

tail file List the last few lines

Other Basic Commands

I/O Redirection

Most commands output to the screenls

Output can be redirected to a file with‘>‘:

ls > dir.txt

cal 1997 > year1997

“>”把输出输入到文件中

“>>”:cal 1998 >> years把输出加到文件后

Concatenate two files:

cat f1 f2 > fs
Input redirection (less common) uses ‘<‘

wc < years
Combine input and output redirection:

wc < years > year-counts

Editor

vi is a text editor.

vi shows you part of your file and allows you to enter commands that change something

命令模式:移动光标，移动到文件的不同部分，发出编辑命令，切换到插入模式。
插入模式:无论你输入什么都将被放入文件中(不解释为命令)。

光标移动命令in command mode
