LAMP Stands For L - Linux A - Appache  M - MySQL P - Php
LINUX Definition:   Linux is a free open source  Operating System, based on Unix. It is available from many vendors with optional paid for support and provides an increasingly viable alternative to the Win 32, platform.
Syntax: mkdir Example: mkdir [option] directory Make Directory
Syntax: cd Example: cd .. CHANGE DIRECTORY
Syntax: mv Example: mv testdir newnamedir CHANGE THE NAME OF DIRECTORY
REMOVE AN EXISTING DIRECTORY Syntax: rmdir Example: rm -r
LISTING OF DIRECTORY Syntax: ls Example: ls
COPY FILE To copy file use Syntax: cp Example: cp myfile yourfile
Creates a symbolic link to a file Make links between files, by default, it makes hard links; with the `-s' option, it makes symbolic (or "soft") links. Syntax: ln [Options]... target [Linkname] ln [Options]... target... Directory
SENDS FILE CONTENT TO STANDARD OUTPUT To send a file content to standard output use Syntax: cat
PRINT WORKING DIRECTORY Syntax: pwd Explanation:  It will show the current working directory

EXIT FROM A LOOP Exit from a for, while, until, or select loop Syntax: break [n] If n is supplied, the nth enclosing loop is exited. n must be greater than or equal to 1. The return status is zero unless n is not greater than or equal to 1.
COMPARE TWO FILE Compare two files, and if they differ, tells the first byte and line number where they differ. You can use the `cmp' command to show the offsets and line numbers where two files differ. `cmp' can also show all the characters that differ between the two files, side by side. Syntax: cmp options... FromFile [ToFile]
COMPARE DIFFERENT FILES Display the differences between two files, or each corresponding file in two directories. Each set of differences is called a "diff" or "patch". For files that are identical, diff normally produces no output; for binary (non-text) files, diff normally reports only that they are different. Syntax: diff [options] from-file to-file
DIVIDE A FILE INTO SEVERAL PARTS Divide a file into several parts (columns) Writes to standard output selected parts of each line of each input file, or standard input if no files are given or for a file name of `-'. Syntax: cut [OPTION]... [FILE]...

PRINT OR SET SYSTEM NAME Print or set system name Syntax: hostname [name] With no arguments, `hostname' prints the name of the current host system. With one argument, it sets the current host name to the specified string. You must have appropriate privileges to set the host name.
Syntax: bash  GNU Bourne-Again SHell
CURRENT USER Syntax:  whoami Print the current user id and name (`id -un')
CURRENTLY LOGGED Syntax:  who   Print all usernames currently logged in
Syntax: while   Execute commands
Syntax: which   Search the user's $path for a program file
TEXT EDITOR Syntax: Vi Used to edit text
CURRENT LOGIN NAME Print current login name Syntax: logname Prints the calling user's name, as found in the file`/var/run/utmp', and exits with a status of 0. If there is no `/var/run/utmp' entry for the calling process, `logname' prints an error message and exits with a status of 1.

DISK USAGE Disk Usage - report the amount of disk space used by the specified files and for each subdirectory. Syntax: du [options]... [file]... With no arguments, `du' reports the disk space for the current directory. Normally the disk space is printed in units of 1024 bytes, but this can be overridden.
DISPLAY THE SYSTEM MEMORY Syntax: Free   Displays the amount of used and free system memory.
CREATE AN ALIAS Syntax: alias [-p] [name[=value] …] unalias [-a] [name ... ] Key: -p  Print the current values -a  Remove All aliases
SPELL CHECKER Syntax: aspell check [options] filename Examples: Check the file foo.txt: $ aspell check foo.txt
SEND TO BACKROUND Syntax: bg [PID...] Example: Put the job with job id 0 in the background: bg %0
KILLING PROCESS Syntax :  kill process_ids  kill - signal process_ids kill -l  Kills the specified processes, sends the specified processes the specified signal (given as a number or name), or prints a list of available signals.
KILL ALL THE PROGRAMS Syntax :  killall program  killall - signal program Kills all processes that are instances of the specified program or sends the specified signal to all processes that are instances of the specified program.
REBOOT THE SYSTEM Syntax :  reboot  Reboots the system
SHUTDOWN THE SYSTEM Syntax :  shutdown -r minutes  Shuts down the system after the specified number of minutes elapses .
SLEEP TIME Syntax :  sleep time  Causes the command interpreter to pause for the specified number of seconds.
An arbitrary precision calculator language  Syntax: bc options file...  Explanation: bc is a language that supports arbitrary precision numbers with interactive execution of statements. bc starts by processing code from all the files listed on the command line in the order listed. After all files have been processed, bc reads from the standard input. All code is executed as it is read.
Run a shell builtin Run a shell builtin, passing it args, and return its exit status. SYNTAX:  builtin [shell-builtin [args]] This is useful when defining a shell function with the same name as a shell builtin, retaining the functionality of the builtin within the function.
Conditionally perform a command Conditionally perform a command, case will selectively execute the command-list corresponding to the first pattern that matches word. Syntax:  case word in [ [(] pattern [| pattern]...) command-list ;;]... esac The `|' is used to separate multiple patterns, and the `)' operator terminates a pattern list. A list of patterns and an associated command-list is known as a clause. Each clause must be terminated with `;;'.
Convert a full pathname to just a path  Convert a full pathname to just a path Syntax dirname pathname Prints all but the final slash-delimited component of a string (presumably a filename). If PATHNAME is a single component, `dirname' prints `.'
Estimate file space usage Disk Usage - report the amount of disk space used by the specified files and for each subdirectory. Syntax du [options]... [file]... With no arguments, `du' reports the disk space for the current directory. Normally the disk space is printed in units of 1024 bytes, but this can be overridden

Environment variables Display, set, or remove environment variables, Run a command in a modified environment. Syntax: env [OPTION]... [NAME=VALUE]... [COMMAND [ARGS]...]
Exit the shell Exit from a program, shell or log out of a Unix network. Syntax: exit If supported will exit you from the program, shell or log you out of network.

Evaluate expressions Evaluate expressions, evaluates an expression and writes the result on standard output. Syntax: expr expression...
Do nothing, unsuccessfully Do nothing, returning a non-zero (false) exit status Syntax: false `false' does nothing except return an exit status of 1, meaning &quot;failure&quot;. It can be used as a place holder in shell scripts where an unsuccessful command is needed.

Comment / Remark Syntax: ### A comment or remark is indicated by starting the line with the # character # This is a description # Another remark command # Another remark Related commands: : (a colon) : [arguments]

Print a string until interrupted Syntax: Yes `yes' prints the command line arguments, separated by spaces and followed by a newline, forever until it is killed. If no arguments are given, it prints `y' followed by  a newline forever until killed. The only options are a lone `--help' or `--version'.
Send a message to another user  write Send a message to another user Syntax: write user [ttyname]
Print byte, word, and line counts Print byte, word, and line counts, count the number of bytes, whitespace-separated words, and newlines in each given FILE, or standard input if none are given or for a FILE of `-'. Syntax: wc [options]... [file]... Options: -c --bytes --chars Print only the byte counts.
CREATE AN ALIAS Syntax: alias [-p] [name[=value] …] unalias [-a] [name ... ] Key: -p  Print the current values -a  Remove All aliases
EXCUTE A COMMAND Syntax: exec [-cl] [-a name] [command [arguments]] Options: -l  Place a dash at the beginning of the zeroth arg passed to command. -c  Causes command to be executed with an empty environment. -a  The shell passes name as the zeroth argument to command.
CONVERT AND COPY A FILE Convert and copy a file, write disk headers, boot records, create a boot floppy. dd can make an exact clone of an (unmounted) disk, this will include all blank space so the output destination must be at least as large as the input. Syntax dd [Options]
