There are a lot of articles upon this site, and it appears that many of the most popular are those that are written with the complete beginner in mind. After realizing this I've got a decided to introduce a miniseries covering a few easily-overlooked tools and commands over the next week.
There are many scripts, tools, and commands available upon the average Debian GNU/Linux system. To the extent that I'm often amused that I've made a typo and accidentally invoked a valid command!
(xlogo was a command I only discovered by accident, for example. As was sl.)
For the next seven days I'll be introducing some of the commands which I use frequently, and may well be new to you.
If you have any suggested tools, or useful Debian packages that you'd like to recommend then please feel free to create your own article, or mention them in a comment.
