 ====== Daily used Linux commands ====== ====== Daily used Linux commands ======
  
-After the start of our SliTaz base (see here) we did [[login]] and see now, following a Welcome message, a [[prompt]] folling a short indication:+After starting our SliTaz base (see [[newbie#training|here]]) we [[logged on]] and can see now, following a Welcome message, a short command line  [[prompt]]:
  
 <file>tux@dolilive:~$ _</file> <file>tux@dolilive:~$ _</file>
  
-We can immediately understand who is doing where:+Now we can immediately start to understand who is doing what: 
  
-    * **tux** is my [[login]] +    * **tux**, is my [[login name]] 
-    * **@** as I am "at", read the next... +    * **@**, is where I am "at"  
-    * **dolilive** somewhat //like do_Linux_live// +    * **dolilive**, something //like do_Linux_live// 
-    * **:** what we will do is await at the [[prompt]] and it will be active here: +    * **:**, what we chose to do is awaiting us at the [[prompt]] and it will be actived here (in absence of some concrete object that would redefine the destination) 
-    * **~** in my «home» (**~** is the symbol for the home of the user logged in!)+    * **~**, is my «home» (**~** is the symbol for the home directory of the user logged in!)
  
-We enter at the prompt our first command: +<note warning>warning: **~** depends on the administrative rights you actually have</note> 
 + 
 +If you are //root//, any data will be automatically registered in the special directory ///root//. The tree of the main directory is also named the //root of the file system//. The symbol / is the first sign that you see alone or in the first place of all the other paths! It is not possible to unbind the //root of the file system// and the main directory //root// is used by the administrator //root// for all of their transactions! This directory ///root// is a special directory as for example as it has to be in the same partition as the tree of main directories as well as hold the contents of the first level!  
 + 
 +The //home// of users is a subdirectory in the main directory ///home//! The path is as follows: 
 + 
 +<file>/home/tux</file> 
 + 
 +tux can be defined differently at the installation if you don't want to be called tux! In such a case the path would be: **/home/SomeWhatYouWillBe**. Both the contents of home, as well as the contents of //SomeWhatYouWillBe// can also be contained in a separate partition. The automatic installer in the SliTaz Panel can help you to do that if you wish.  
 + 
 +We can enter now at the prompt our first command: 
  
 ===== ls ===== ===== ls =====
 +
 +__You don't need to exit__
 +
 +**ls** is a command to list files located in the actual directory. Adding parameters and/or paths it can do that in each directory where you have the rights and can do more than just showing the file names. 
 +
 +Please test:
 +    * ls --help
 +
 +(more? see [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ls|here]])
 +
 +And test now please:
 +    * ls /usr/bin
