LINUX TIPS

Image-Image-Image
shuts down computer
*Image-Image(Image,Image,Image)
switch to n-th console
*Image-Image orImage
switch to next/previous virtual terminal
*Image
locks terminal input/output - allows to read console contents when
alternatively, Scroll Lock can be enabled usingImage-Image and disabled withImage-Image
try last shortcut if your console hangs for unknown reason - it happened to me many times that I’ve locked it accidentaly by pressing CTRL-S
*Image-Image orImage
scrolls console buffer up/down
works also when Imageis enabled
after changing the terminal buffer contents is erased and it is impossible to scroll it
*Image-Image
screen refresh
*Image-Image orImage
kills current task
*Image-Image
stands for EOF (End-of-file). If you type it on en empty command line, it will quit bash. This is so much faster than typing exit
*Image-Image
pause process. Use commands: bg to run in background or fg to run in foreground.


I will edit this topic and add new shortcuts in a short while.
Please say thx by posting a reply - it is only a second.
Enjoy Mr. Green
