[gentoo-user] [Announcement] gentoo-class: 06/14 on command-line

Hi all, 
 
we've decided to hold a small gentoo class on IRC next Thursday, and see if it
goes well and if the experiment needs to be developed. The topic is
"command-line usage" and we will try to speak about the following things: 
 
 1) why use command-line 
 2) what is a shell? a terminal? how to choose/install/launch one 
 3) common commands (ls/cd/cp/mv/rm/mkdir/man/...) 
 4) completion 
 5) more advanced commands (cat/less/vim/ps/top/mount/dmesg/...) 
 6) piping 
 7) tips and tricks 
 
This is intended as a beginner course. You will only need a working linux (not
necessarily gentoo) install and an irc client. If you already know the basic
use of command-line, don't expect to learn anything. We won't go into more
advanced topics like shell scripting or sed usage. 
 
The class is expected to last for one hour, and will be followed by half an
hour of Q&A, and open floor after that. The channel will be mute but we will
still be able to read you and will voice people who have interesting questions. 
 
The time will be 8pm UTC (that's 4pm on the east coast, 10pm in western
europe, 9pm in the UK), and the place #gentoo-class on irc.freenode.net.
Everyone is welcome. 

If you can't attend, the logs will be available, and hopefully also a more readable edited version.

Thanks,
/Alexandre

Would any homework be assigned from the following link:
