-===== Useful Linux Commands ===== +
-  * **apropros** - Useful for finding "//appropriate//" commands.  i.e., **apropros network** will show useful commands related to networking. +
-  * **man** - RTM.  Read The Manual.  Enough said? i.e., **man ls** will let you read the manual for the command **ls**.  +
-  * **[[https://www.howtoforge.com/linux-lshw-command/|lshw]]** - list hardware.  Needs elevated privileges to properly probe all of the system's hardware.  Also useful to pipe the output into a paginator for easy reading.  i.e., **sudo lshw | less** will run the command with elevated privileges, then it pipes the output from that command into the text reader command **less**.+
