Talk:All commands

Here's a suggestion for a new format:

A
 * alias, at, anacron, apropos More

The goal is to make the "most important" commands--the ones that crop up in normal use--quickly accessible. Of course, there will be disagreement over which ones are the most important,  but I don't see that being a major problem.

It would also get rid of the somewhat repetitive "Commands beginning with the letter [letter]"

Anyways, that's what I'm going to do. If anyone's really unhappy about it, go ahead and revert.

This is a good collection and nice effort by you but how about also providing the link to the site where you got all this from.

Plus I will be adding links to these commands. Feel free to join in.

I have broken this page down as each time I wanted to edit, it said that the page is too big, break it down. I also kinda like the way it looks now. Easy accesibility.

Now it would be easy for people to contribute or edit the commands.

Beginning to look ok.
Finally it looks decent. Good job people. Streg 13:08, Mar 7, 2004 (EST)

Just a point, but shouldn't we make a distinction between an actual command like "kill" or "alias" and a call to an external binary like "ls" or "cat"? That could either be useful or it could confuse people :-\

It all lokks very cool now. Nice. But, just one thing. You have added links to all the commands. Are you going to explain them all as well?? I mean, I thought that we should add links to only those commands which already have a page or whicg you intend to explain sooner or later.

But making links to all the commands is not such a good idea as not all of these commands need a page of their own to explain switches and things.

I am not against this and I really like the new look. But all I am saying is that since these pages have been created we shouold all take out some time and give proper description of these commands.
