    In spite of the fact that computer technology is changing very rapidly and sometimes in very drastic ways, the UNIX/Linux fluency still remains so relevant. I am amazed that Unix knowledge I acquired in my college days (25+ years ago) still carries me thru in various jobs. I've changed so many languages and frameworks over the years, they become obsolete or not in demand, but knowledge of Linux is still crucial. Same for SQL. If nothing else -data structures, Linux commands and SQL should be in your foundation.

    If you really want to understand the terminal, you have to look into it's history, going back to physical computer terminals, to teleprinters/teletypewriters (TTY) .
    A CTRL combination like ^Z or ^C actually sends a character code to the shell. These are called control characters (hence the CTRL key), as they don't represent graphical characters to be printed, but commands to control the device outputting the text. You can see them if you look at an ASCII table. For example ^G sends code 7, telling the receiver to ring a bell (a physical one originally). ^H (or the backspace key) moves the writing head back one character, which would let you fill in a space or print a character on top of another character, like O [Backspace] ^ would print Ô.
    ^C sends the "end of text" character. ^J sends the "line feed" character, which on typewriters would feed the next line to the writing head, without moving the carriage back to the beginning of the new line. To start writing the new line you'd then also need the "carriage return" control character ^M. This is why new lines are LFCR (line feed carriage return) on Windows. On Unix-like systems, only the line feed character is used.
    You may be familiar with the C escape sequences for these control codes:
    (line feed)
    (carriage return) \0 (null) \t (horizontal tab)
    One thing I love is that the Delete code is 1111111 in binary. This is because it was designed for punched cards/tape, where it would overwrite any other character by punching a hole in every position, in contrast to \0 (null) - 0000000, which was supposed to be ignored and wouldn't do anything.

      I completely agree about "terms which can throw me off".. You would expect as much clarity as possible when learning something new and still someone using those advanced terms, which can only familiar audience can understand. To me, such education is garbage, because it is useless, when you can't understand that. This video is fortunately great and don't have these flaws.

    If you have in some way documented these commands for learning purposes. For follow-up I would recommend, that you use the shell "man pages" --> "man " to fully understand the command usage and correct argument and parameters for the "flavor" of Linux you are using. While the commands themselves rarely change , arguments and parameters often do affecting the output. Linux has a very powerful system of tools and the "man pages" have very explicit information on usage and even some hidden gems relative to your Flavor of Linux.

    Wow, finally done! I did go through it all. The more basic commands I understand well enough. ChMod, though, that was a fun one. There are a lot of commands that I want to play with in my VMWare Ubuntu. I'm glad for virtual machines, and it helps a lot. I didn't know about WSL until this course, that might have been more fun.
    Thanks so much, Colt! I'm sure this was a lot of work to put together! You're a very patient man!

    I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
    Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.
    There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

      It appears the author anticipated responses like this one.

    WSL and VMs were NOT the only way to use or exec linux commands on Windows. UNTIL 64-bit came along, in the days of 32-bit only, there was a project called CO-LINUX that worked perfectly IN WINDOWS.

Almost giving up of learning linux. First time I see someone telling that is possible to use linux terminal on windows :D

    The use of the word "Terminal" comes from the "Old Days" (i.e. back in the day) of original computer communications. In the days of ENIAC, UNIVAC, etc., the only way to communicate with a computer was through a Teletype machine terminal, that's right folks, Teletype, like a communication typewriter. The name has stuck with us.

    The most popular command I use is r which I wrote myself in bash. I didn't name it r for reset but everyone I've ever worked with thinks that is why I called it r. What it does is clear the screen, displays a line centered across the screen that shows me the host name, then another centered line displaying the terminal id number, the current time, and the current working directory. Then it displays the current value of the ls command. I would encourage anyone that wants to be a Linux Guru to write their own r command. Not that I'm a Guru but I think it is an excellent excerise for learning bash and very useful, especially if you are working with multiple hosts using the command line.
