Terminal

[POWERS, ZACK]

The Linux Terminal takes alot of time to learn. It helps alot if you
use it constantly. One feature that terminals have over GUIs that make
them very useful is persistence. Terminal persistence gives you a
terminal you can use where ever you go and it'll be as if you never
left your computer at home. This is why I recommend new linux users
interested in the Terminal learn to use screen.

Here is only one of many useful tutorials on using screen. Feel free
to mail this list with any questions you have about screen.
