I am 3 days into learning linux.What is there available to one clk a list of common text commands to copy-paste ?

Asked by Aztec13

I can't see any regular user of a system like this continually typing out the same "Terminal" commands. That would maybe be a good Firefox Extension to Rgt Clk a command list.I know I'm not that bright to revolutionize an entire OS in 3 days.

Hello,

it is not necessary to enter the commands each time. If you used a command - this will be stored. If you use the arrow keys up and down the shell shows the last commands.

A second help is TAB key if you not sure how to write a command, type some letters and hit the TAB key and the shell will try to complete with known commands.
