From " Top Ten Curiously Useful Linux commands"
Quote:
5. nano
Vi? Emacs? Forget 'em! Nano is the official command line editor for Mental Deficients, Ubuntu users, and the Beige Binary Blog! No fancy commands or extensible interfaces here, just plain, solid text editing.

Laughing Maybe we should look at our command histories and list our ten most-used commands?
As a regular user, mine are ( in no particular order):
su -
cd
nano
ping
exit
shutdown -r now
ssh <ipaddress>
man (or info)
ls
top

I'll post my top ten root user commands later maybe.

I use 7 of those as well (I don't shutdown much tho, nor do I use the confusing man pages much, but I no longer use ssh at all - I'd replace those three with something like cat, more, less, free and grep ...... etc. .... etc. Smile but most of the time I'm using these commands as a root user, rather than as a user.
