LINUX TERMINAL TUTORIAL EDCI 339 – Online Presentation by Roop Rahal

Linux Terminal Tutorial Website Why did I Create a Linux Terminal tutorial ? - Required Skill for Computer Science students at UVic - It is assumed when you enter a CSC degree at UVic that you already have Linux skills

Features of the website  Links to download a common version of Linux Called Ubuntu.  4 sections including a bonus Video section on developing Ruby on Rails applications.

Section 1 – Directory Navigation  This section covers all basic commands for navigation of the file system  Commands for viewing and editing files  Commands for changing file permissions  Complete list of basic commands to do day-to-day tasks with files in linux

Section 2 – Bash Commands  More complicated commands of the bash shell terminal are covered in this section.  Compression, Redirection, Piping, History and filename completion are a few.

Section 3 – SSH  SSH – secure shell  Used to connect to other Linux systems  In this section I go over some advanced configuration options for SSH  SSH will allow you to work on a computer remotely as if you were actually there

Section 4 – Help  Help.ubuntu.com  I have made a help section that quickly shows you how to use the “man” command and how to use the VI editor.

Section 5 – Ruby on Rails Demo  I added a Ruby on Rails demo video to the website because It is a really handy tool to know how to use to make web applications  Can create web applications in minutes  A CSC student at UVic has to make roughly one web application per semester  Using Ruby on Rails students can save days worth of work

Conclusion  I really enjoyed this project because it is something I will keep online forever  It is actually a useful tutorial on a subject matter that is of interest to a lot of UVic students
