Linux - Main Page

I use the Linux operating system on my computer at home - it is such a great computer operating system! It is such a joy to use.

If you use computers and have never experienced the joy of using Linux then read on, and hopefully try out Linux!!!

If you already use Linux you may find some of the scripts and 'one liners' usefull. Some of the one liners are included again in the scripts. Basically the one-liners have the minimum explanation and need to be included within your own scripts to be usefull.

The scripts themselves are as well documented as I can have them, for I think there is nothing worse than half an explanation. If you find I haven't explained things well enough then please email me so I can improve things. I learnt a lot from other helpful sites and this is my 'tuppence worth'.

Use the links below to head to the particular page you want. Enjoy, enjoy, ENJOY!

MY JOURNEY TO LINUX
How I began to use computers and finally ended up discovering and using the Linux operating system (Ubuntu and Kubuntu). This includes information on 'LINUX - LIVE CDs'.

SCREENSHOTS OF LINUX ON MY COMPUTER
As the saying goes - a picture paints a thousand words - and this is very true about what desktops can look like. Feast your eyes on what I see on my computer.

LIST OF SCRIPTS
Most of these are based on BASH - the command line scripting language.

COMMAND LINE ONE LINERS
Most of these are based on BASH but also other Linux programs.
