<!-- Echo command text -->
|
|
<h2>Echo</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>This command print as output its entire argument on the command-line.<br>
|
|
It could be used with variables, like in the following example:<br>
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
example:"this is an example"
|
|
<br>
|
|
<b>echo</b> $example<br>
|
|
this is an example
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<!-- Cat command text -->
|
|
<h2>Cat</h2>
|
|
|
|
This command prints the content of a certain file as an output on the command-line.<br>
|
|
|
|
As example, we could imagine a simple text file in pages named "Hello", which contains the line "Hello World".<br>
|
|
So, our command example will look like this:<br>
|
|
<pre>
|
|
pages Hello
|
|
<b>cat</b> Hello<br>
|
|
Hello World
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<!-- Grep command text -->
|
|
<h2>Grep</h2>
|
|
|
|
This one behaves very similarly to the previus one, but in this case it prints only the lines matching a certain pattern.<br>
|
|
In this we could imagine a certain text file "animals", which contains a list of animal-names.
|
|
|
|
If we want to select only the animals whose name begins with the letter "d", we will write this:<br>
|
|
<pre>
|
|
grep d animals<br>
|
|
Deer<br>
|
|
Dog<br>
|
|
Dolphin<br>
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
