Almost any task can be performed graphically on a modern GNU/Linux distribution such as openSUSE, but to really become a self-reliant user and to truly take advantage of the power of your GNU/Linux operating system, you should at least know a few terminal basics — it’s not difficult at all!
There are thousands of commands you can run, each with a number of different options. So this chapter is just a small teaser describing the most common commands.
You’ll find Konsole under System in the launch menu.
Your web browser does not support the HTML5 video element and/or Ogg Theora format.
Try Firefox, Konqueror or Opera.
Using the command line is quite easy. Simply enter a command and possibly one or more options and one or more arguments and then press Enter. Example:
The command ls displays a list of files, the option -l means that the list will be displayed in a long listing format, and the argument /home/[username]/ sets the directory of which the contents are listed.
The tab-key is increcibly useful, if possible it will auto-complete commands and arguments, which helps you work faster and avoid typos.
This shortcut stops any operation you may have started.
This is just a very small selection of commands to give you an idea of how things work.
Almost all commands have an accompanying manual page describing how to use the command and the available options. For example type:
To leave the man page again press ‘Q’
If a command does not have a man page, try —help instead, example:
Then type your (root) password. Nothing will appear on screen as you type, this is intended.
To stop working as root and return to working as your normal user, run exit.
Editing configuration files or other text files can be done like this using the vim editor, which is installed by default.
Open a file with vim /path/to/file. Example:
Root permissions are used in the example because yast2 is a system configuration file — this is not generally required to edit files with vim. |
Press i to enter insert mode (you will see «— INSERT —» at the bottom). Now you can edit the text in the file. When you’re done editing press Esc to leave insert mode and return to command mode. Now type 😡 which is the command for exit and save. To quit without saving any changes use :q!.
Vim is quite advanced, you might consider installing a simpler text based editor, e.g. try nano.
Terminal

A terminal is a text-only user interface. It offers low-level access to the machine, and can be an extremely helpful and powerful tool.
- Make deep and substantial changes to the system
- Gather additional messages from programs
- Speed up repetitive tasks by running scripts
- Use machines not supporting a Graphical user interface
The principal disadvantage of the terminal is that it is difficult (but not impossible!) to learn. It can be accessed either through a virtual terminal, or through a graphical program called a terminal emulator.

Shells
When using a terminal, you enter commands to a shell. There are various flavors of shells ranging from very basic ones to more complex ones. The main difference is the amount of built-in functionality. One of the most widely used shells is bash, which is the default in openSUSE.
Other well-known shells include Korn Shell (ksh), zsh, C Shell (csh), tcsh and Bourne Shell (sh).
About Shell Prompts
When a shell is invoked, a prompt is the first thing displayed on every line. A user prompt looks something like this:
A user shell prompt usually ends with a $
A root shell prompt always ends with a # .
Help Utilities
The primary command-line help utility is man. To find a command by keyword:
To read a man page on a specific command:
info is another documentation utility. Some programs might be listed in an info page.

Conclusion
By default in openSUSE, the terminal will start the bash shell. Use of commands are vital in circumstances when an installed desktop has limited capabilities or is not available.
