Linux Command Examples

For anyone looking, there have been several great HN threads about UNIX commands, here are just a few:<p><a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6360320" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=6360320</a><p><a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6046682" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=6046682</a><p><a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5022457" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=5022457</a><p><a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4985393" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=4985393</a><p>I have also created a couple screencasts about the &quot;Filesystem Hierarchy Standard&quot; @ <a href="http://sysadmincasts.com/episodes/12-crash-course-on-the-filesystem-hierarchy-standard" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;sysadmincasts.com&#x2F;episodes&#x2F;12-crash-course-on-the-fil...</a> and a &quot;Crash Course on Common Commands&quot; @ <a href="http://sysadmincasts.com/episodes/13-crash-course-on-common-commands" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;sysadmincasts.com&#x2F;episodes&#x2F;13-crash-course-on-common-...</a>

It would help a LOT if these were organized by something other than alphabet, or if these had some kind of five-word snippet describing what each command does. This is one of the few instances where alphabetizing doesn&#x27;t do us any good -- if we knew what our command started with, we could just search for it.

Is it just me or does this seem like man pages but on the web? I applaud the effort but still, seems like it would make more sense spend this time and teach ppl how to use the man command.

Searched for nmap, got this sweet exception:<p>CException Property &quot;SiteController.bodyClass&quot; is not defined.<p>Maybe later then!

Looks cool. Is there a github repo somewhere where we can send pull requests? It&#x27;s missing stuff like systemctl.

This is excellent. Just what I was looking for as a Linux novice.
