Writing
Writing: Writing to Files: echo, > and >>, Editing in the Terminal: nano.
Updated
- Writing to Files: echo, > and >> (Novice): echo prints a line of text, > (read "into") sends it into a file and replaces whatever the file had, >> (read "add to") adds it to the end, and printf writes neat lines from a pattern.
- Editing in the Terminal: nano (Novice): nano is a text editor that runs inside the terminal, where you open a file with nano and its name, move with the arrow keys, save with Ctrl+O and quit with Ctrl+X; and if vim opens by accident, Esc and then :q! get you out.
