This week's things which were learned
I now know a slew of spells:
mkdir, mv, cd, ls, ls -l, touch,cp, rm, cal, cat, who, and I've probably forgotten a few.
I've garnered an understanding of the manner in which files are created and stored, and that everything is a file, and what different kinds of files there are -regular, directory and special.
I logged into the irc and am on the class mailing list.
We discussed file permissions and learned the chmod spell to change them in octal.
We made a skeleton, put him in a closet and gave him cake. That is, we created a directory with mkdir, moved it with mv (mv source destination), copied it with co (cp source destination) and created a symbolic link. I need to follow up on the symbolic link command as well as research what a symbolic link is, as its name implies that there are numerous kinds of links.
I added a file, unix, to my respository, committed and pushed it.
There was a substantial amount of additional information placed in this, but the page became unavailable when I saved it and I am now too livid to recreate such.
