INTRO(1) BSD General Commands Manual INTRO(1)NAME
intro -- introduction to general commands (tools and utilities)
DESCRIPTION
Section one of the manual contains most of the commands which comprise the BSD user environment. Some of the commands included in section
one are text editors, command shell interpreters, searching and sorting tools, file manipulation commands, system status commands, remote
file copy commands, mail commands, compilers and compiler tools, formatted output tools, and line printer commands.
All commands set a status value upon exit which may be tested to see if the command completed normally. The exit values and their meanings
are explained in the individual manuals. Traditionally, the value 0 signifies successful completion of the command.

I'm new to the bsd, I have used knoppix, mandrake, and some others, but I would like to try out freebsd.
What version should I use, or should I try and learn something different first before I got to BSD? (5 Replies)
Hi all, I'm glad there's a section called UNIX for dummies on this forum cause when it comes to UNIX, I am certainly a dummie. I honestly don't have a clue about 98% of the UNIX commands out there so forgive me if this is a really stupid question.

How could you put the output of two commands into one file using a single command? For example put the output of a grep command and a sort command into one file together.
Here is another rough explanation of what I am trying to do;
output of
$ grep pattern file1
plus output of
$ sort file... (8 Replies)

First of all want to apologize for such a simple question. Very "new" to UNIX and have just taken a small intro class.
I need to pull back YYYYMMDD and store it in a field to be used later. I figured out date "+%Y%m%d" returns the date in that format, just not sure how to store it.
I am... (7 Replies)

I don't really know much about UNIX commands, so if someone could help me understand how to do this, I'd really appreciate it.
I have a text file with data that looks like this (filename: numbers.txt):

I tried opening the windows command line and typing UNIX commands, but they don't work. It kept saying that it was not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

I'm using plink.exe on WinXP to run some commands on Z/OS BASH. My commands are interspersed with echo commands so that I can parse the output and work out what is where.
