I've been using shells since grad school in the mid-1980s and Linux since the late 1990s. I don't believe I've ever used __open__ . As for __nano__ , I'd love to see usage stats on how many accounts use it vs vi, EMACS, etc. I may not stray far enough from Ubuntu, but I've never used any distribution which didn't include vimtiny among its default packages.
Sure __sudo__ is popular (frequently used), but __su__ ? If it is, should it be?
Finally, most of the commands shown are external, but __alias__ is always a shell built-in, no? Which leads to a question: how many use __clear__ rather than an alias to something shorter? Me, I use Windows about as frequently as Linux, so I use alias cls=clear, and I could shorten that to cs. As for __history__ (also a shell built-n), how much value does it have without __fc__ ?

In spite of the fact that computer technology is changing very rapidly and sometimes in very drastic ways, the UNIX/Linux fluency still remains so relevant. I am amazed that Unix knowledge I acquired in my college days (25+ years ago) still carries me thru in various jobs. I've changed so many languages and frameworks over the years, they become obsolete or not in demand, but knowledge of Linux is still crucial. Same for SQL. If nothing else -data structures, Linux commands and SQL should be in your foundation.

macOS is a UNIX 03-compliant operating system certified by The Open Group. It has been since 2007, starting with MAC OS X 10.5. The only exception was Mac OS X 10.7 Lion, but compliance was regained with OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion. Amusingly, just as GNU stands for -GNU's Not Unix,- XNU stands for -X is Not Unix.-

When you have a directory with boatload of files, ls becomes a pretty heavy command as it sorts by default. Remember when an archive directory on our server had thousands and thousands of small files, I had to write a C program with native code for a raw listing. -find- is even more intrusive.

I used Ubuntu Docker image to run and try out all these commands. Just have to run apt-get update inside the container every time I want to continue learning these command spanning over a few days. BTW, thank you for the great video.

In kill command you give PID by yourself is it possible that linux automatically locate PID and kill it. We just have to write specific file name and PID will be located by it? How it can be done because I hage to use loop.

Can you create file in the path that doesn't have folders on the way? For example touch /1/2/test. With mkdir -p you can create folders if they don't exist. What about creating a new file in a similar way ?

The only thing that scares me about using Linux Commands is that I can't undo the command line I typed if I don't like what it did. Or undo a mistake that who knows what will do to my computer.

Hi Colt, how do you set the verbose (-v) from the very beginning of a terminal session? How do you turn it on by default? Please reply. thanks, Bob
