Exercise 15: Exiting Your Terminal (exit)

Do This

Linux/OSX

$ exit

Windows

> exit

You Learned This

Your final exercise is how to exit a Terminal. Again this is very easy, but I'm going to have you do more.

Do More

For your last set of exercises I'm going to have you use the help system to look up a set of commands you should research and learn how to use on your own.

Here's the list for Unix:

  • xargs
  • sudo
  • chmod
  • chown

For Windows look up these things:

  • forfiles
  • runas
  • attrib
  • icacls

Find out what these are, play with them, and then add them to your index cards.
