+   This is a jumping-off reference point for new users who may be
+   completely unfamiliar with Linux commands. It does not contain all
+   the information you need about using the Linux console, but instead
+   just gives you enough information to get started finding the
+   information you need.
+
+Linux Commands
+
+   To run a command, type the command at the prompt, followed by any
+   necessary options, and then press the Enter or Return key. 
+
+   Most commands operate silently unless they are specifically asked to
+   say what they are doing. If there is no error message, the command
+   should have worked.
+
+   The operation of most commands can be changed by putting command
+   options immediately after the command name. There are several styles
+   of options used, and you have to check the documentation for each
+   command to know what options it can take, and what they do.
+
+   Linux commands are case-sensitive, and almost always are all
+   lower-case. ls is a valid command; LS is not.
+
+   In most cases you can use the tab key to ask the command shell to
+   auto-complete the command, directory or filename you have started
+   to type. If a unique completion exists, the shell will type it. If
+   not, you can press tab a second time to obtain a list of the
+   possible auto-completions.
+
+Commands for Reading Documentation
+
+   In the following command examples, the [ ] characters are not
+   typed, they mean that whatever is enclosed is optional. For
+   example, you can also start `info' without any subject at all.
+
+   When a given keyboard shortcut is preceded by ctrl- or alt- , that
+   means hold the control or alt key down, and type the given key
+   while holding it down (the same way you use the shift key). A
+   shorthand notation for ctrl- is ^ (^C means ctrl-C).
+
+   man subject
+          man shows the manual page on the command (use q or ctrl-C to
+          get out of it if it doesn't terminate at the end of the
+          text).
+
+   info [subject]
+          A lot of Debian Linux documentation is provided in info
+          format. This is similar to a hypertext format, in that you
+          can jump to other sections of the documentation by following
+          links embedded in the text. An info tutorial is available
+          within info, using ctrl-h followed by h. 
+
+   help [subject]
+          Use help for on-line help about the shell's built-in commands.
+          help by itself prints a list of subjects for which you can
+          ask for help.
+
+   pager filename
+	  pager displays a plain text file one screen at a time.
+          Additional screens can be displayed by pressing the space
+          bar, and previous screens can be displayed by pressing the b
+          key. When finished viewing the help, press q to return to
+          the prompt.
+
+   Using -h --help with | pager
+          Most commands offer very brief built-in help by typing the
+          command followed by 
+
+            -h or --help
+         
+          If the help scrolls up beyond the top of the screen before 
+          you can read it, add 
+
+            | pager 
+
+          to the end of the command.
+
+   zmore document.gz
+          zmore is a document pager -- it displays the contents of
+          compressed documentation on your disk, one screenful at a
+          time. Compression is signified by filenames ending in .gz .
+
+   lynx [document]  or  lynx [directory]  or  lynx [url]
+          lynx is a text-based web browser. It can display documents
+          (plain-text, compressed, or html), directory listings, and
+          urls such as www.google.com. It does not display images.
+
+Commands for Navigating Directories
+
+   pwd
+          Displays your current working directory. The p stands for
+          print, which is a carryover from when unix was designed,
+          before the advent of computer screens. Interactive computer
+          responses were printed on paper by a connected electric
+          typewriter instead of being displayed electronically.
+
+   cd [directory]
+          Change your current directory to the named directory. If you
+          don't specify directory, you will be returned to your home
+          directory. The `root' directory is signified by / at the
+          beginning of the directory path ( / also separates directory
+          and file names within the path). Thus paths beginning with /
+          are `absolute' paths; cd will take you to an absolute path
+          no matter what your current directory is. Paths not
+          beginning with / specify paths relative to your
+          current directory. cd .. means change to the parent
+          directory of your current working directory.
+
+   ls [directory]
+          ls lists the contents of directory. If you don't specify a
+          directory name, the current working directory's list is
+          displayed.
+
+   find directory -name filename
+          find tells you where filename is in the tree starting at
+          directory. This command has many other useful options.
+
+Documentation Indices
+
+   The standard doc-linux-text package installs compressed text linux
+   HOWTOs in
+
+        /usr/share/doc/HOWTO/en-txt/
+
+   Particularly helpful HOWTOs for new users are
+
+        /usr/share/doc/HOWTO/en-txt/Unix-and-Internet-Fundamentals-HOWTO.gz
+        /usr/share/doc/HOWTO/en-txt/mini/INDEX.gz
+        /usr/share/doc/HOWTO/en-txt/Reading-List-HOWTO.gz
+        /usr/share/doc/HOWTO/en-txt/META-FAQ.gz        
+
+   Individual package documentation is installed in
+
+        /usr/share/doc/<package-name> 
+
+   New user website references include
+
+       http://www.debian.org/doc/FAQ
+       http://www.linuxdoc.org/LDP/gs/gs.html
+
+Recording User Sessions
+
+   script filename
+          Use script to record everything that appears on the screen
+          (until the next exit) in filename. This is useful if you
+          need to record what's going on in order to include it in
+          your message when you ask for help. Use exit, logout or
+          ctrl-D to stop the recording session.
+
+Turning Echo On/Off
+
+   To turn off echoing of characters to the screen, you can use
+   ctrl-S. ctrl-Q starts the echo again. If your terminal suddenly
+   seems to become unresponsive, try ctrl-Q; you may have accidentally
+   typed ctrl-S which activated echo-off.
+
+Virtual Consoles
+
+   By default, six virtual consoles are provided. If you want to
+   execute another command without interrupting the operation of a
+   command you previously started, you can switch to another virtual
+   console (similar to a separate window). This is very handy for
+   displaying the documentation for a command in one console while
+   actually trying the command in another. Switch consoles 1 through 6
+   by using alt-F1 through alt-F6. 
+
+Logging Out
+
+   exit   or   logout
+
+          Use exit or logout to terminate your session and log
+          out. You should be returned to the log-in prompt.
+
+Turning Off the Computer
+
+   Turning the computer on and off is really a system administration
+   subject, but I include it here because it is something that every
+   user who is his own administrator needs to know.
+
+   halt   or   shutdown -t 0 -h now
+          This command shuts the computer down safely. You can also
+          use ctrl-alt-del if your system is set up for that. (If you
+          are in X, ctrl-alt-del will be intercepted by X. Get out of
+          X first by using ctrl-alt-backspace.)
