Linux碎碎念

Action · 2020 年1 月 1 日 23:23

当然同意只会用ls, cd便可。

作为业务爱好, 平常看看Linux打发时间, 发现喧嚣热闹, 鸟哥鸟叔, 老男孩小鲜肉;
既然是打发时间嘛, 必然没有硬性指标, 不成想时间打发了倒是真的, 而且还打发了不少, 爱好却无从谈起; 回头一看, 如沙滩上建空中楼阁.

Linux的十万点击博文往往如此,

ls落伍了, 高效(or 搞笑)的exa来了
你还在用cd吗? 高手都在用facd
grep? OMG, 你是原始人吗? rg走起

如此这般, 林林总总, 不一而足.

稳扎稳打, 步步为营, 层层构建的方案是现成的. (避嫌, 贴lpic的维基百科链接

闲话少叙，上图lpic-1提炼的十大知识体系.

1.1.Home目录 :

安装Ubuntu后, Home文件夹下主要有四个文档:

Documents
Pictures
Music(注意是不可数名词)
Videos

人类的信息交换, 传播与存储, 只有这四个方面:

Text(文本)
Image(图像)
Audio(声音)
Video(动态)

看一眼, 由静态入动态, 由文字到造型八大艺术:

番外, video这个单词, 我总typo成vedio, 后来读"凯撒"的维基百科,
那句著名的: "我来, 我见, 我征服"的拉丁语"Veni(Venue), Vidi(Video), Vici(victory), 再也没有拼错过.

exa 不错啊，可以不看git ignore，还能看git状态。我把我的ls的快捷键换到exa了

/run /media /mnt 这三者有什么不同，经常分不清

Action · 2020 年1 月 3 日 21:27

/run不必说了，跟后面非同一类。

mnt, 自己mount的话到这个目录 media留给系统自动mount用，
就是惯例，没有区别。
