This would have been a great time to introduce the “cd -“ command (without quotation marks) as well.
On most systems depending on which shell you are using that will take you back to the last directory you were in without typing the full path.
Let’s say you were in /bin/sub_dir1/sub_dir2/sub_dir3 and you typed cd ~ and then wanted to return to the previous /bin/sub_dir1/sub_dir2/sub_dir3 you could just type cd – without typing the complete path which can be quite long at times.
I explained this for your viewers. I hope you don’t mind.
Again, Jason, great content!
I'll add that, IMHO, the linux command line is no harder than Windows, it's just different.
Another thing that I don't think a lot of people take into consideration is that the Raspberry Pi started out as as development platform, not a desktop computer. As it's matured it's become a desktop, but its roots are strong!
Nice informative video Jason. Those of use that use linux daily or have a lot more experience take a lot of this for granted. Good content. Something else to maybe mention is the Tab key, which will auto complete, or show you available choices as you cd around. I rarely type complete paths and instead type the first couple of letters and tab to autocomplete the rest. 73
Thank you
As a former senior linux admin I could not help but giggle a little bit when I saw this. But hey them linux noobs gotta start someplace.
Pretty much done with Linux for emergency use. Micro windows based computers are dirt cheap now so I don't have to deal with raspberry pi issues. Raspberry are toys for experimenting and nothing will convince me that in a need they are reliable for use. In comparison I switched to a Latte panda two years ago. Its portable, reliable and not a lick of trouble in those two years. The Pi's on the other hand are always an issue and cannot be depended on. If you go to linux forums with a question you either get bad answers or one that assumes you already and expert at linux. 9 times out 10 they are no help. Thanks' to you though I get some use out of them. It's just an easy decision now as though I paid 500 for the latte I can get the same for 100 now. Better software and very few hassles.
Probably worth doing a video like this every few months for the new guys and as a refresher for others….
Good info Jason 👍👏👏
Thank you for taking the time…Great video.
I'll definitely be doing that class! I've been learning bash commands by way of Google for the last couple years and it's been a lot of relearning over and over again because I've mostly been copying so I can get a task completed and not actually learning what I was doing
Thanks man, very helpful.
These are the kind of basics that old timers like us take for granted. "What do you know about linux?" "Not much"… but these basics are "much" for somebody new to it. Great vid!
