Conclusion

That concludes our basic overview of how to use a command shell. There is a lot more, which would be very useful especially when writing shell scripts or performing advanced tasks. However the above should be serve as a good beginning to understand what is going on in the system, as well as a starting point from which you can learn more details about Linux shell programs. Remember that the bash shell has its own man page, as well as longer tutorials and documentation available at the Linux Documentation Project website.
