Linux Command Line Symbol ~/

[Dan Healy]

What does the "~/" mean?  In my notes on connecting to an AWS instance I
have the following command line:

scp -r -i *your file*.pem ../../../var/www/*application folder name* ubuntu@
*IPAddr:*~/

The "~/" is pencilled in on my notes.  I don't know why I put it there or
what it is supposed to do and I have not been able to find any explanation
on-line.  I would appreciate any ideas any of you might have.

Also, does anyone know of a good, searchable, on-line, Linux command line
reference?

Thanks,

Dan H
