| |
| − | To "get around" in the terminal, use the following keys.
| |
| − | * enter - a command is only executed when you press enter.
| |
| − | * up and down arrows - lets you run a previously typed command again.
| |
| − | * tab - if you are typing a filename, you can press tab to let the terminal auto-complete some part of it. This also works for command names (e.g., type mkdi and then tab).

| − | =Sample Session=
| |
| − | Here is an example session from running on the CS server using all of these commands. Note that the part "cs20200@cs:~> " is a prompt that is printed by the terminal, and the part after this is what was typed by the user. So for the first command, the user typed the command uptime and then pressed enter. The system then printed some information on the next line, and then printed the prompt "cs20200@cs:~> " again to indicate it is ready for the next command. The prompt displays "cs20200" because that is the user that was logged in running these commands. If your username was "cs15115" then your prompt would be something like "cs15115@cs:~>".
