through the console output. Press “Scroll Lock” again to turn it off.

Want colour in your directory listings? Use “ls -G”. “ls -F” is also useful,
and they can be combined as “ls -FG”.

To search for files that match a particular name, use find(1); for example

find / -name “*GENERIC*” -ls

will search ‘/’, and all subdirectories, for files with ‘GENERIC’ in the name.

In tcsh, you can `set autolist’ to have the shell automatically show
all the possible matches when doing filename/directory expansion.
%
You can `set autologout = 30′ to have tcsh log you off automatically
if you leave the shell idle for more than 30 minutes.
%
If you `set filec’ (file completion) in tcsh and write a part of the
filename, pressing TAB will show you the available choices when there
is more than one, or complete the filename if there’s only one match.
%
You can press up-arrow or down-arrow to walk through a list of
previous commands in tcsh.
%
You can disable tcsh’s terminal beep if you `set nobeep’.
%
If you `set watch = (0 any any)’ in tcsh, you will be notified when
someone logs in or out of your system.
