Joe, as always, I find your vids fun to watch. One of the utils you didn't mention that I thought you might want to add would be 'which' as opposed to 'locate'. I know there are many utils for this sort of thing, but this one has helped many of my users.
@@EzeeLinux I have been using your vids to introduce/educate many of my users. I find it nice you really try to explain. Many of our users complained that other training/tutorial vids "talked down them" or kept it so confusing they had to really work at. With many of your vids I've had positive feedback. And, I hope, that some of them return to watch other videos of yours. Keep up the good work and if there is anything I can do to help you, please just let me know.
Thanks for the tip about Midnight Commander. Haven't used that in *years* and installed it on my system. Great to have something like that in the terminal. I use Double Commander in the GUI
I for One like these videos as a refresher. Being New still I for get how sometimes (Gray Hair)... Thanks for Video and adding the list to the "Show More" section... I keep getting confused on the "Permissions" and your chart make more sense to me... Still learning to use Grep more too.. Don't Worry Joe OCD is a a Good thing... Lol LLAP
Joe Collins thank you so much on program called MC it really help me so much and the interface is so damn beautiful! I really like old school interface
Two really useful keypresses I've found in the terminal are ctrl+W (delete word) and ctrl+R (search history to retype a previous command). There's more, but I use those two all the time. There's info in "man bash" under the heading "killing and yanking"
I love MC as well, in fact I actually prefer its text editor over nano. You can run it direct from command line as well "mcedit". The only issue I have with MC is that in some terminal emulators the F10 key is mapped to something else, meaning closing MC or MCEdit can be cumbersome - usually needing me to move my hand off the keyboard to go find the mouse. E.g. in the GNome Terminal I have to disable the menu accelerator key which is mapped to F10, painful since then I can't get to those menus through the keyboard - more an issue with Gnome Terminal (why they don't ad this into the keyboard shortcuts so you can map some other key to it I have no clue). Alternatively MC does include the F9-->Options/LearnKeys so you can show it which of its defaults work and then remap those which don't. I just find it a bit more cumbersome to do than just turning off the terminal emulator's variant of F10 instead. BTW the same issue applies for HTOP, though there you can use Ctrl+C to close HTOP as well.
everytime i do mv it's like deleting the files i'm trying to move to a new directory. The files will be gone from previous directory, but will not show up in newdir2. Example: mv file1.txt newdir2/
Make sure you ls the destination directory to see if the files are there. As long as the directory exists, it should move them there. mv cannot delete files.
@@EzeeLinux i figured it out i have to put the full path for the files to be moved. I'm not for sure if it's different with each distro of linux, but I'm using Mint.
