Some of the important directories in Table 4.1, such as those containing user and root commands or system configuration files, are discussed in the following sections. You use and edit files under these directories when you use Fedora.

Linux also includes a number of GNU commands you can use to search the file system. These include the following:

whereis command—Returns the location of the command and its man page.

whatis command — Returns a one-line synopsis from the command's man page.

locate file command — Returns locations of all matching file(s); an extremely fast method of searching your system because locate searches a database containing an index of all files on your system. However, this database (about 4MB in size and named slocate.db, under the /var/lib/slocate directory) is built daily at 4:20 a.m. by default, and does not contain pathnames to files created during the workday or in the evening. If you do not keep your machine on constantly, you can run the updatedb command as the super user to manually start the building of the database.

apropos subject command — Returns a list of commands related to subject.

Managing Files with the Shell

Managing files in your home directory involves using one or more easily remembered commands. If you have any familiarity with the now-ancient DOS, you recognize some of these commands (although their names differ from those you remember). Basic file management operations include paging (reading), moving, renaming, copying, searching, and deleting files and directories. These commands include the following:

cat filename — Outputs contents of filename to display

less filename — Allows scrolling while reading contents of filename

mv file1 file2 — Renames file1 to file2

mv file dir — Moves file to specified directory

cp file1 file2 — Copies file1 and creates file2

rm file — Deletes file

rmdir dir — Deletes directory (if empty)

grep string file(s) — Searches through files(s) and displays lines containing matching string
