Welcome to the unixkcd console.
To navigate the comics, enter "next", "prev", "first", "last", "display", or "random".
Use "ls" and "cat" to navigate the filesystem, other commands such as "cd store" will allow you to navigate around the site.

edit: damn you tara :P

Tar.Aldarion · 02-04-2010 01:51AM

No, I'm so far over the bleeding edge that I've come right back around. Minefield 3.7a4pre nightly.

Minefield, a perfect name for bleeding edge anything. :pac:

So the Unix forum ... Linux is great, huh? Come on cable842, you should be plugging Linux to all these blowins

Brian · 02-04-2010 10:45PM

Is Windows 7 Linux?

Please, no blasphemy in the Unix forum.

Brian · 03-04-2010 12:12AM

I'm pretty sure it's Linux. Look, I have GIMP!

Na, you just are one. :P

Brian · 03-04-2010 12:20AM

Actually, Windows' CLI really sucks compared to *nix. Thankfully it doesn't break very often so I don't have to use it.

Herbal Deity · 03-04-2010 12:21AM

Actually, Powershell is awesome.
