+<p>When using Bash, you are always in some directory, called the current directory or the working directory.  <code>pwd</code> shows you the full path to this directory.  Do <code>man pwd</code> for details.<p>

+~ $ mkdir learn

+
+<p><code>mkdir</code> makes a directory in the current directory.  You should be able to see the created directory in Mac Finder or Windows File Explorer.  <code>cd</code> stands for "change directory".  This changes the current directory.  <code>cd</code> is a built-in command (built into Bash), and <code>man</code> isn't useful with built-in commands, so instead of <code>man cd</code>, try <code>help cd</code>.

Do <code>man ls</code> to see what the options I used do.  <code>-F</code> appends a "/" to directories, and <code>-a</code> shows files starting with "." which are usually hidden.  Options can be combined.</p>

+</code>
+
+<p><code>-l</code> gives you this ugly techy format.  You get the date that the file was last modified.  Before the date is the file size.  <code>-t</code> sorts by date descending.</p>
+
+<p>Lastly I will describe autocompletion.  I type <code>echo d</code> without enter/return but instead then press the tab key.  It autocompletes to <code>echo dir1/</code>.  I press tab again and it autocompletes to <code>echo dir1/d1file</code>.  Pressing tab while entering a file or directory makes Bash try to autocomplete using matching file names.  If I enter <code>echo f</code> and press tab, I get <code>echo file</code>.  It doesn't know which to choose next.  Another tab just beeps.  And another tab shows me the options like this:</p>
+
+<code block>
+~/learn $ echo file
+file1  file2  file3  
+~/learn $ echo file
+</code>
+
+<p>In general, you can press tab anytime while entering a file name and see what happens.  Autocompletion saves a lot of typing.</p>
