Command Line TV is a video podcast to help you learn and master the Unix shell. Informally, ‘Unix’ refers to a family of operating systems that includes GNU/Linux, Mac OS X, and FreeBSD. Operating a computer via the command line gives you tremendous power and flexibility, but it’s not easy to learn. We’re here to help! We start from the beginning, but also try to include some tips suitable for intermediate users. Each video is about 20 minutes long, and we aim to release a new episode every week or so.

    Episode 12: Find and locate

    We use find and locate to dig up lists of files on our system that match certain criteria. We also look at xargs for executing commands on a selected set of files.

  2. 13/10/2015 · VIDÉO

    Episode 11: Filesystems

    We investigate the standard filesystem hierarchy and some tools for managing filesystems.

  3. 29/09/2015 · VIDÉO

    Episode 10: Shell scripts

    We create shell scripts using the hash-bang header, and also look at permissions, variables, and loops in the shell.

  4. 22/09/2015 · VIDÉO

    Episode 9: Redirection and substitution

    We explore some more shell basics including redirection to and from files, and command substitution. This feature allows the output of one command to be used as parameters of another command.

    Episode 8: Package managers

    In this episode, we explore some of the capabilities of package managers for installing and updating software on your system. Specifically, we look at the ‘apt’ system on Ubuntu GNU/Linux. On other systems, you might use Yum (RedHat/Fedora), Pacman (Arch), or Homebrew (Mac). This page shows a comparison of commands for several Linux packaging systems: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pacman_Rosetta

    Episode 7: ImageMagick

    We look at ImageMagick, a powerful suite of command-line tools for doing image processing. With it, we resize, crop, blur, and do format-conversion on a collection of image files.

    Episode 6: File management part 2

    In this episode, we continue looking at managing files and directories using cp, rm, mkdir, and rmdir. We also show off the tree command and revisit creating an alias in our .bashrc.

  8. 25/08/2015 · VIDÉO

    Episode 5: File management part 1

    We use mv to move and rename files, and create a shell alias to improve the safety of one of its sharp edges. We also introduce the .bashrc configuration script, and mkdir to create directories.

  9. 18/08/2015 · VIDÉO

    Episode 4: Text manipulation

    We learn about text manipulation commands like cut, sort, and uniq. We build sophisticated pipelines to analyze data, including surveys and web logs. We also look briefly at invoking simple text editors from the command line, like nano, gedit, and TextEdit.

  10. 10/08/2015 · VIDÉO

    Episode 3: Wildcards and grep

    In this episode, we use basic wildcards to select files, and then explore how the ‘grep’ command can search for words or phrases across multiple files. As always, you can follow along using the same directory structure by downloading it from https://github.com/commandlinetv/sample-files.

  11. 04/08/2015 · VIDÉO

    Episode 2: Viewing files

    We look at viewing files using commands like cat, more, less, head, and tail, including using those in short pipelines. We also try opening files in external applications using open or xdg-open (and live dangerously by dumping a binary file with cat).

  12. 28/07/2015 · VIDÉO

    Episode 1: echo "Hello!"

    Welcome to Command Line TV, a new video podcast to help you learn and master the UNIX shell. In this first episode, we talk about our backgrounds, the scope of this endeavor, opening your terminal, and using basic commands like cd and ls to explore a directory tree. You can follow along using the same directory structure by downloading it from https://github.com/commandlinetv/sample-files. Note: we have a few minor problems in this first episode with audio synchronization and a somewhat noisy environment. It gets better in future episodes!
