That is, everything is readable, but somethings only I can write. I generally use only two permissions:Ĥ44 and 644. SoĬhmod 777 turns on all permissions for all types of people andĬhmod 000 turns them all off. Each rwx corresponds to one octal number from 0 to 7. The octal format is convenient because it changes all of the permissions at once, but can be confusing for people who don’t think in octal. The more human readable one looks like this.
You can change the permissions of a file with the chmod (change mode) command. Most files fit into one of a few categories. Having all permissions on is generally not a good idea. If you copy files from a USB flash drive, it will typically have all these permissions because the file system on most flash drives is not Unix-based. So everyone has permission to read, write, and execute this file. The 3 rwx symbols that follow are the read, write, and execute permissions for user, group, and public. If it was an alias, the letter would be an l. If the file was a directory, the letter would be a d. rwxrwxrwx 1 ubuntu ubuntu 0 Mar 31 17:54 foo.txt*

To see how much free space you have on your file system, use the df (disk free) command with the -h option to make it more human-readable (try it both ways). This could be a hard disk or other medium, and there could be one or more. The file system is where your files are stored. The more comfortable you are using the command line for everything, the better off you will be. You can do some of these things from the graphical desktop interface, but resist this. You need to be able to create, edit, and delete files and directories to do anything.
In Unix, pretty much everything is a file. We’ll use two: nano, which works from your command line interface, and Atom which you have already met you can use Atom from the desktop and is more like a word processor. There are many, many text editors, and some people are insanely passionate about one or the other. You will be reading and writing a lot of text files. Run the date command by typing in the terminal and ending with the return key. In this case launch Terminal by clicking on the icon near the middle of the dock on the bottom of your screen. Launch the terminal application (the name of this will differ from one operating system to another and even within a particular OS you will have several options). If you are taking BIS180L, if you haven’t already done so, launch your AWS instance and connect by VNC. So when it comes time to work with thousands of files, it will be much easier through a command line interface. Some of these statements are “do this now” while others are “let’s get ready to do this.” It may seem silly in this high-tech age to type your commands when you could simply point and click or maybe even use voice activation or gesturing. The command line is where you type instructions for what you want the computer to do. You should know that we are using the bash. There are several types of shells and terminals, but the details of these are mostly unnecessary for us. Your interface to Unix will be through a shell program using the command line interface within a terminal application. Use the Markdown formatting that you learned earlier. Use this to record the various things you learn today. Start your AWS instance running and connect using the VNC interface. Thanks clever and kind developers for making our lives easier. The text was prepared in Markdown format (John Gruber) using BareBones TextWrangler and Atom. It is for entertainment purposes only, so if you hurt yourself, don’t blame us. This document was authored by Ian Korf with modifications by Julin Maloof and John Davis. Why does the title of this document mention Unix when the distribution is Linux? Is there a difference between Unix and Linux? Practically, no philosophically, sort-of politically, yes. The examples below assume you are using (L)Ubuntu Linux 18.04, other versions and distributions will probably be fine. This is meant to be a very quick introduction to the Unix operating system for the BIS180L bioinformatics laboratory class at UC Davis.
