I'm writing a book right now about the Linux command line (Linux Phrasebook), so I'm knee-deep in shell goodness. I just today read about this page, How To Look Like A UNIX Guru, and I first thought it was going to tell me to grow a big beard, wear t-shirts all the time, & eat a lot of pizza or Chinese food. Happily, it's actually a loooooong page listing essential *nix commands and how to use them. This would be a great page to read over to test yourself, and it would also be a good candidate for printing or saving in case you need a quick reference. Check it out ... it's very useful, and that's a good thing. Now I'm off to comb my beard and clean the pizza stains off my t-shirt!
