- Write Linux command-line regular expressions to list files whose
names fit some pattern. For example a pattern might be something
such as "all file names with 6 characters that start with a 'C'
and have an 'a' as the fourth character".
- Given the name of a Linux command, find out about
that command's function and options by using man.
- Using a single Linux command, determine
how "busy" the computer is.
- Use UNIX "redirection" to read input from the Standard Input
file, stdin, and/or write output to the Standard Output
file, stdout, and/or the Standard Error file, stderr.
- Use UNIX "pipe" commands to execute a chain of
Unix programs, where the output of program "i" is
used as input to program "i+1".
