1. 40 Important Command for linux
Linux is the oft-ignored third wheel to Windows and Mac. Yes, over the past decade, the open
source operating system has gained a lot of traction, but it’s still a far cry from being considered
popular. Yet though that may be true, Linux still earns new converts every day. Will you join
them?
The learning curve of Linux is what deters most users from even trying it in the first place. It can
be a traumatic experience having to go from a GUI-based operating system like Windows or
Mac to one that requires command line fiddling. But if you can get over that initial hump of
difficulty, you may find that Linux is surprisingly robust.
If you want a crash course on all that is Linux, we’ve got a great Linux newbie’s guide that will
teach you all you need to know. For the rest of you who just want a brief overview of some
important commands you ought to know, the following list is all you’ll need.
Newbie Commands
cd - Changes the current working directory in the command line console.
exit - Exits out of the current program, terminates the current command line terminal, or logs you
out of a Unix network depending on the context.
kill - Terminates the specified running process. The Linux version of Windows’ “End Process”
in the task manager.
ls - List all of the contents of a specified directory. If no directory is specified, it will use the
current directory.
man - There’s a running gag in the Linux community that man is the only command you need to
know. It stands for manual, and it will give you detailed information on commands and aspects
of Linux.
pwd - Displays the current working directory for the command line terminal. Good for when
you’ve lost track of where you are in your system.
reboot - Immediately stops all running processes, shuts down the system, then reboots.
shutdown - Stops all running processes and shuts down the system. Parameters can be specified
to issue a delayed shutdown or a shutdown at a particular time.
sudo - Runs commands as root, which means no limitations due to permissions.
System Information
2. date - Prints out the current system date and time. Specified parameters can change the format of
the output.
df - Reports the disk space usage for the file system.
hostname - Displays the name of the current host system.
ps - Displays information about all of the processes currently running on the system.
quota - Displays disk limits and current disk usage for a specified user. Useful when there are
multiple users assigned to a particular system.
top - Displays all of the top processes in the system, by default sorted by CPU usage.
uptime - Reports how long the system has been running since last boot. Extremely useful for
servers.
File Manipulation
bzip2 - Compresses specified contents into a .bz2 archive or extracts from a .bz2 archive
depending on parameters.
chmod / chown - Changes the access permissions of one or more files (chmod) or changes the
ownership of a particular file to a new user (chown). Only users with permission or ownership of
a file can change that file’s permissions or ownership.
cp - Copies files to a new location with a new name depending on the parameters. Can copy
directories too, whether recursively (includes all subdirectories) or not.
find / locate - Searches the system starting at a specific directory and matching all files within
that location to a set of conditions laid out by the command parameters. Very useful for quickly
finding certain files.
grep – Searches through all of the files in a specified location trying to find files that contain
lines that match a given string. Returns a list of all the files that scored a match.
install - Used in conjunction with Makefiles to copy files from one location to the system. Not to
be confused with installing packages from a software repository.
mkdir / rmdir - Creates a directory (mkdir) or deletes a specified directory (rmdir). Directories
can only be created and deleted within directories that you have permission in.
mv - Moves files and directories to another location. Can be used to rename files and directories
by keep their source and destination locations the same.
open – Opens a specified file using the default system application for files of its type.
3. rm - Remove and remove directory. Used to delete files and directories from the system,
whether one at a time or in batch.
tar - Creates a .tar archive or extracts from a .tar archive depending on specified parameters.
zip / unzip - Creates a .zip archive or extracts from a .zip archive depending on specified
parameters.
Other Noteworthy Commands
apt-get – Advanced Packaging Tool. Use this command to install, remove, and configure
software packages on your system. For a menu-based version, use aptitude command. Available
on Debian-based Linux distributions.
ftp / sftp - Connects to a remote FTP server in order to download multiple files.
wget - Downloads files from the Internet at the specified URL to your system.
yum - Yellowdog Updater, Modified. An open source package manager used to easily install
software packages from repositories. Available on RPM-compatible Linux distributions.
emacs – One of the most well-known text editors on Unix-like systems.
nano - A newbie-friendly command-line text editor that uses keyboard shortcuts to simulate
menus.
vim - Vim is the successor to Vi, both of which are command line text editors for Unix-like
systems. Though Vim is popular, it doesn’t use menus or icons for its interface so it has a
reputation for being newbie-friendly.
