| + | A quick note about commands and **arguments**. | ||
| + | |||
| + | If there is a **short command**, the argument generally begins with one dash: | ||
| + | |||
| + | < | ||
| + | $ ls -a | ||
| + | </ | ||
| + | |||
| + | If there is a **long command** that does something similar, it generally begins with two dashes, followed by a word: | ||
| + | |||
| + | < | ||
| + | $ ls --all | ||
| + | </ | ||
| + | |||
| + | There are exceptions to these, but this is mostly true. | ||
