in this post I wanted to share my knowledge of command - the command in linux
operating system that is less in interest by many people because it is less familiar but linux is really the same as DOS (disk operating system). but many people say, how do I install a program on linux OS? My answer was very relaxed really easy when we only installation program or application in linux we have to go first to the Comman Prompt or if the
windows (DOS). we install the program with the command - the command or with the text. mouse or move the mouse we will no longer work but we are using the keyboard in penginstall is because we use words. so many people who say linux is hard to use once it is not. I want to give a glimpse of the command line is as follows:
Glance Command Line
Just as when we type the command in DOS command line or Linux command line is typed at the prompt and terminated by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard to execute the order.
Command line is a more efficient way to do any work. Therefore, Linux users still rely on this method to work. Beginners should also be aware of and at least once this use command line because one day the knowledge of these commands can be very necessary.
The following will explain some basic commands that may later be used primarily by beginners. Attention: knowledge of the commands that others will soon increase as you progress mastering this Linux operating system.
Explanation of each command will be shortened course and to find out more detail the functions of a command, you can see the manual, for example, by typing man command:
man is the command to display the manual of a command. The way to use it is to type man followed by the command we want to know the manual usage.
Example:
$ Man ls
The above command is used to show how to use the ls command in full.
Command-Linux Basic Commands
As a guide you, here's a list in alphabetical order. Actually, you can just press tab twice to see all possible commands that can be used. Suppose you want to know what the command begins with the letter a, then you just type a then press tab twice!
According Command Alphabetical List
\x26 Adduser alias bg cd cat chgrp chmod chown cp fg halt find grep gzip hostname login logout kill less ls man mkdir more mesg passwd mount mv pwd rm rmdir tail su shutdown umount talk tar unzip the wall who unalias xhost + xset zip
\x26
Command \x26 used to run commands on the back (background) Example:
Command \x26 used behind the other commands to run in the background. What is the street in the background? background road means we allow the system to execute the command itself without our participation, and free the shell / command prompt can be used to run other commands.
See also:
Please see also the bg and fg commands.
adduser
Adduser command is used to add users.
Usually only done by root to add users or new-account. After this command can be continued with the passwd command, the command to create a password for the user. Example:
# Adduser udin
# Passwd udin
Note that all commands that require root access, I have written here by using the sign #, to help you distinguish that the command does not need root access.
If you run the adduser command, you will be asked to enter a password for the user you created. Fill in the password for the new user twice with the same words.
alias
Used to provide another name from a command. For example if you want the ls command can also type the command dir executed with, then make like follows:
$ Alias dir = ls
If you like the colorful display, try experimenting with the following command:
$ Alias dir = ls-ar-color: always
To see the commands have any other name then, just type the alias alone (without argument). See also command unalias.
bg
To force a process is suspended (suspend) to run in the background. Suppose you're running a command in the foreground (without ending the order \x26) and a shell when you need it so you can pause the command with Ctrl-Z and then typing bg command to run the background. In this way you have to free the shell but still maintaining the old command running in the background.
See also command fg.
cat
Displays the contents of a file on the screen. Example:
$ Cat / name / of / file
cd
Change Directory or to move the directory and I think you will have no difficulty using this command because of how similar its use cd command in DOS.
chgrp
This command is used to change the group ownership of files or directories. For example to give permission to the group or groups in order to access a file. Writing syntax is as follows:
# Chgrp
chmod
Used to add and subtract users permission to access files or directories. You can use the numeric system of coding or letter coding system. There are three types of permissions / permits that can be changed as follows:
1. r for read,
2. w for write, and
3. x for execute.
By using the letter coding, you can change the permissions on the above for each u (user), g (group), o (other) and a (all) by only giving the plus sign (+) to add the permission and the minus sign (-) to revoke licenses.
For example to give permission to read and execute files coba1 the owner and group, the command is:
$ Chmod ug + rx coba1
To revoke such permits:
$ Chmod ug-rx coba1
By using a numeric coding system, the permissions for user, group and the other is determined by using a combination of numbers, 4, 2 and 1, where 4 (read), 2 (write) and 1 (execute).
For example to give permission to read (4), write (2) and execution (1) file coba2 to the owner, his orders are:
$ Chmod 700 coba2
Another example, to give permission to read (4) and write (2) coba3 files to a user, please read (4) only to the group and the other, the command is:
$ Chmod 644 coba3
Caution: If you are hosting on Linux based servers, this command is very important for your data security. I recommend all the directories you need not write in chmod 100 (if the Apache way as the current user (you)) or in chmod 501, if the Apache way as www-data or nobody (other users).
chown
Changing the user ID (owner) of a file or directory
$ Chown
cp
To copy a file or copy. For example to copy file1 to file2:
$ Cp
fg
Restoring a process that is stopped while (suspend) to run again in the foreground. See also the bg command above.
find
To find where the location of a file. This command will find files in accordance with the criteria you specify. The syntax is the command itself followed by the beginning of the directory name search, then the file name (can use wild cards, meta characters) and the last to determine how the search results will be displayed. For example to search for all files ending in. Doc in the current directory and display the results on the screen:
$ Find. -name *. doc-print
Example results:
. / public / docs / account.doc
. / public / docs / balance.doc
. / public / docs / statistics / prospek.doc
. / public / docs / statistics / presconf.doc
grep
Global regular expresion is parse or grep commands to find files containing text with the criteria you specified.
Format command:
$ Grep
For example to search for files containing text in the current marginal directory:
$ Grep marginal
diferent.doc: Note: the words used in the marginal area in economics prob.rtf: the function of marginal and marginal cost function if the function prob.rtf: if the marginal cost and marginal result is known then the total cost
gzip
This is a free version of the GNU zip compression functionality is to compress a file. The syntax is very simple:

However you can give certain parameters if you need a file compression better, please see its manual page. See also the tar file, unzip and zip.

Option-He does display all the files / all including hidden files (files with the prefix a dot) with the long format.
