Lightning - Speed For Your Shell. Introducing lightning, a commandline framework that could revolutionize how fast you are on the commandline. Lightning lets you easily define and generate shell functions which autocomplete and interpret paths (files and directories) by their basenames. With these functions you don’t have to ever type the full path to any file for any command again.

. # 1112 available system ruby files $ less-ruby [TAB] Display all 1112 possibilities? The ‘-I’ being passed to less-ruby demonstrates an important point. Perhaps you noticed less-ruby can refer to 1112 files by basename. Note the format for displaying conflicting basenames is basename//directory.

To help you get a little more comfortable with the jargon of the Linux CL, and concepts behind it, we asked Ken Milberg to give us a list of the most useful Linux utilities and programs that can be executed from the command line. This list is not meant to include each and every command under the sun, so we've provided a sidebar of links to guide you to more exhaustive resources. -- Editors An introduction to the command line and the Linux shell Although there's no real distinction between a command and a utility in Linux or Unix, there is a distinction between Linux (or Unix) shell commands and "standard" UNIX or Linux system commands or utilities.
