    built database.

    commands are available related to some subject – for example, commands that deal
    with user accounts.

    The command for moving around the Linux file system is ls, but there are many
    variations.

    Creating and editing files

    familiarity before they'll be easy to use while others are fairly self-explanatory.

    moving and removing files.
