- Gives a nice list of short-cuts. Most of them I've never used before.

The default shell on most Linux operating systems is called Bash. There are a couple of important hotkeys that you should get familiar with if you plan to spend a lot of time at the command line. These shortcuts will save you a ton of time if you learn them.
* Ctrl + A Go to the beginning of the line you are currently typing on
* Ctrl + E Go to the end of the line you are currently typing on
* Ctrl + L Clears the Screen, similar to the clear command
* Ctrl + U Clears the line before the cursor position. If you are at the end of the line, clears the entire line.
* Ctrl + H Same as backspace
* Ctrl + R Let's you search through previously used commands
* Ctrl + C Kill whatever you are running
* Ctrl + D Exit the current shell
* Ctrl + Z Puts whatever you are running into a suspended background process. fg restores it.
* Ctrl + W Delete the word before the cursor
* Ctrl + K Clear the line after the cursor
* Ctrl + T Swap the last two characters before the cursor
* Esc + T Swap the last two words before the cursor
* Alt + F Move cursor forward one word on the current line
* Alt + B Move cursor backward one word on the current line
* Tab Auto-complete files and folder names
* Ctrl + W erase word before cursor
* Ctrl + Y to paste it (as in delete and copy) all text in front of the cursor
Useful Note that some of these commands may not work if you are accessing bash through a telnet ,ssh session, or depending on how you have your keys mapped.
