5 best-practices of a successful Linux user
,----[ Quote ]
| Do not run away from CLI: You’ve not got hold of quite a few ways to fix
| things on your Linux machine. You may be happy using the GUI window to
| install new apps. This may be synaptic, yum, yast or whatever. But having a
| good hand at the terminal is never a waste. If you can accomplish some basic
| tasks on the terminal, I am sure you’ll be far more confident and proud than
| you were without this ability. Hacking into or tweaking you machine is
| definitely fun but do not intend to just copy-paste commands from the
| Internet cloud. Try using the man page to know what each of the commands do,
| so that next time you know what you’re doing before you hit the return key on
| the terminal.

| A common misconception with Linux is that you have to know how to use the
| terminal in order for you to use linux. The fact is you won’t have to use the
| linux terminal more than you would use CMD in Windows or the terminal in Mac
| OSX. Today we will look into some of the applications that a “normal”
| computer user would use without having to know the terminal. Here the
| term “normal” is vague; since every computer users needs are different from
| one another, but we will try to cover some basic applications that a normal
| computer user might use.
