C is for cc, as hackers recall, and D is for dd, the command that does all. E is for emacs which rebinds your keys, and F is for fsck which rebuilds your trees. G is for grep, a clever detective, while H is for halt which may seem defective. I is for indent which rarely amuses, and J is for join which nobody uses. K is for kill which makes you the boss, and L is for lex which is missing in DOS. M is for more from which less was begot and N is for nice when it really is not. O is for od which prints things out nice and P is for passwd which reads in strings twice. Q is for quota, a Berkely type fable and R is for ranlib for sorting ar table. S is for spell which attempts to belittle and T is for true which does very little. U is for uniq which is used after sort and V is for vi which is hard to abort. W is for whoami which tells you your name, and X is, well, X, of dubious fame. Y is for yes which makes an impression, and Z is for zcat which handles compression. _______________________________________________ http://linux.nf -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives, Subscribe, Unsubscribe, Digest, Etc ->http://linux.nf/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
