The shell is a useful operating system to most researchers who are doing any type of programming. The Unix shell is powerful and often the fastest and most direct way to work with files, folders, executing programs, etc. Also, most programmers operate in this OS, due to the simplicity and control over the system. In this tutorial, you will be introduced to the command line and learn basic commands.
This is a hands-on session.
Users are encouraged to bring their own laptops for this session. Library computers are not equipped for command line scripting.
If you are a Windows user and do not have a command line editor, you need to install X-Win32, or a similar command line application.
