Basic Unix/Linux Command List
=============================
-IAN! idallen@idallen.ca

This is a list of basic Unix/Linux command names used in this course and
the week in which they were first introduced and described.  A missing
week means the command hasn't been formally introduced yet.  All these
command names have manual pages (though some of them are built-in to
the shell and are described in the man page for the bash shell).

Keep a notebook with these command names in it; you will be required to
learn and remember at least some of what each of these commands can do:
