Workshop: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Command Line, Thurs. July 31st, 6:30-8pm @ Free Geek (back door)
Start: 18:30
End: 20:00

How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Command Line,
Thurs. July 31st 6:30-8pm @ Free Geek (back door)

The command line is an interface, or way of interacting with a computer, which is text-only (as opposed to a graphical user interface, or GUI).

When using the command line, you type commands at a prompt (a.k.a. cursor). 

This free workshop is a good idea for beginners interested in learning programming, computer building, or for those who like idea of learning some basic finesse with their digital friend.

  • No command-line experience is required
  • You need a basic familiarity with using computers (nothing fancy)
  • You can either be new to free and open source, or experienced with it
  • Space in our computer lab is limited, so pre-register for this class by emailing info -AT- freegeekvancouver -D0T-org
  • If you have a laptop (running a free operating system), please bring it so we can accommodate more people in our computer lab.
Impress your friends with your newfound movie-hacker-looking skills!
