Here's a unix cheat sheet for shell commands:
http://www.digilife.be/quickreferences/QRC/UNIX%20commands%
20reference%20card.pdf
Here's a comprehensive reference card for (essentially) all of bash,
the standard linux shell
http://www.digilife.be/quickreferences/QRC/Bash%20Quick%20Reference.pdf
Finally, I highly recommend the linuxquestions.org wiki: http://
wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki

My question is, what does the tilde mean in the filename: ~/.ssh/
config
<snip>
in most *nix'es, "~" refers to the current user's home directory,
"~joe" refers to a user name "joe"'s home directory
normally ~/.<something> refers to a user configuration directory
(for instance, if you use pidgin, you have a ~/.purple directory
where the settings for that application are kept so in this case
~/.ssh refers to the settings directory for your ssh client, and
~/.ssh/config refers to the config file therein
if you're curious to find out where that is located, use "cd ~" if
you don't have your prompt set to show you the directory you're in,
you can use "pwd" to see
on a related note, since we're probably going to have a lot of
people coming in to this that are new to linux, does anyone know
where there's a nice intro to shell commands tutorial we can
reference?
