Oh I'm actually just learning unix/how to work properly in the Command line and building this personal source of knowledge up and am wondering if you'd be down to share/point me to places that are good resources (beyond, of course, the man pages)

also the tool discussed here is available via scoop for windows if we're trying it out

Comically my favorite reference is a paper fold out cheat sheet I got 30 years ago. I’d link you to the company but it’s in my office gathering dust for the past year. I could find it through googling and don’t want to point you to one I don’t know about.

Beyond man, I use a very inefficient system of googling “man ls” (or whatever) and using the example sites, and end up using Linux.die.net [0] the most and find it easier to use than the actual man command.

And I found ESR’s guides [1] really helpful for understanding just how stuff works.

I’m sure I would drive a proper Unix user/sysadmin fits, but I just never am root and always have a backup to restore when I break stuff. So it’s hard for me to really break something.
