And 'ed' if you want to end up hurling your computer out a window! -

@kamstrup All well and good.
Now do MS-DOS "find" and "type" vs unix.
Then twist into the EFI shell, ... -

@kamstrup Or 'mount' to mount a disk and 'umount' for umounting a disk
-
@kamstrup and awk if you need to look at documentation and give up and write a python script

$ alias please="sudo"Go on, you know you want to.
@boggin Random tip: make it alias please="sudo " (with a space at the end) and bash will autocomplete commands as the next word (no idea if it works in any other shell)

@kamstrup On a totally unrelated matter, I love it that in Apple II, `cat` listed files, while in Un*x it echoes their contents.
@tomminieminen @kamstrup catalog vs catenate. The perils of abbreviation (not something UNIX is afraid of).
-
@annehargreaves @kamstrup Yes, but adduser and useradd came from different parallel universe dialects of unix, it's just that we live in a multiverse that supports crossovers and team-ups
@cstross @annehargreaves @kamstrup Oh yeah, like the good rename command and the bad rename command.
-
@jay @cstross @annehargreaves @kamstrup also man crontab v.s. man 5 crontab v.s. man 8 crontab "of COURSE 8 means programs and 5 means config"
