 The most common answer you'll hear is:
 
 ## "Linux is an operating system"

 ## In practice, we call this part "Linux"
 
 ---
 
 # Linux? Wait, I also heard "UNIX"?
 
 UNIX is the name of an operating system from 1970 that pioneered concepts that
   will form the basis of Linux (and other OSes) today.
 
 More importantly, it introduced a set of conventions that its descendents follow.
   A system that follows them is called "UNIX-like".
 
 Most of what you learn here will easily transfer to other UNIX-like OSes (e.g. macOS).

 # Connecting to a remote Linux system
 
 The standard tool to connect to a remote system is `ssh`.
 
 .acronym[
 SSH: .highlight[S]ecure .highlight[Sh]ell
 ]
 
 It securely connects you to a remote system.  
 Communication is encrypted, both parties are authenticated.
 
 First, you will need to log in to the system.
 
 If your credentials are accepted, it creates a new shell for you.
 
 It is then displayed on your screen and controlled by your keyboard,
 relayed over the network.

-# Connecting from MacOS / Linux:
+# Connecting from MacOS / Linux / Win10:
 
 Good news: you already have a terminal and `ssh` of your own!
 
 --
 
 First, open the terminal:
 
 * For MacOS, it's accessible from Launchpad, Utilities.
 * For Linux GUI, usually look for a program called Terminal.
+* For Windows 10, open Command Prompt.
 
 --
 
 Then, you need to input the command to connect to a remote host:
 
 ```
 local.user@local:~ $ ssh user@remote
 
 [..some mutual* authentication later..]
 
 user@remote:~ $
 ```
 
 ---
 
 # Connecting from Windows:
 
 You will need an SSH client. Standard one: PuTTY

 ]]

 ---
 
 # Connecting from Windows:
 
 * Make sure "Connection type: SSH" is selected.
 * Put the remote's host name / IP in the form.
 * Select "Open"
 
 A terminal window will open..
 
 ```
 [..some mutual* authentication later..]
 
 user@remote:~ $

 # Mutual authentication?
 
 SSH authenticates both parties:
 
 * Client to server
   * Username + password
   * Username + cryptographic key
   * Something else!
 * Server to client
   * The server has a cryptographic key to prove its identity
 
 --
 
 The first time you connect, you need to explicitly say you trust the (previously unknown) server.
 
 On subsequent connections, SSH will verify that you are still connecting to a server with the same key,
 and will warn you before login credentials are transmitted if you aren't.
 
 --
 
 This is called TOFU (.highlight[T]rust .highlight[O]n .highlight[F]irst .highlight[U]se).

 So, the first time you connect to a new server, you should _expect_ a warning you need to confirm:

 # Greetings from a shell
 
 After connecting, you will be greeted with something like this:
 
 ```
 user@remote:~ $
 ```
 
 --
 
 What you see is the interface of the .highlight[shell]: a text-based interface that allows you to launch other programs with commands.
 
 --
 
 .mnemonic[
 It's called a shell .highlight[prompt] since it's .highlight[prompting] you to enter a command.
 ]
 
 The prompt contains a short summary of current state of the shell.
 
 ---
 
 # Anatomy of a prompt
 
 The prompt looks like this:
 
 ```
 user@remote:~ $
 ```
 
 This may vary slightly from system to system, and is fully configurable, but this is the typical form.
 
 --
 
 This form of the prompt answers 3 questions:
 
 * Who are you? .highlight[Username `user`]
 
 * Where are you? .highlight[Hostname `remote`]
 
 * Where in the filesystem are you? .highlight[`~`] (explained later)
 
 --
 
 Terminating the prompt is (traditionally) a .highlight[`$`] character:
 it delimits where your input goes.

 # Taking command
 
 The shell expects a textual command; most of the time you type the command and press [ENTER] to commit it.
 
 Let's try this (in slow motion)!
 
 ---
 
 ```
 user@remote:~ $
 
 ⠀
 ```
 
 ---
 
 count: false
 
 ```
 user@remote:~ $ whoami
 
 ⠀
 ```
 
 1. Typing in "whoami" as the shell waits
 
 ---
 
 count: false
 
 ```
 user@remote:~ $ whoami
 
 ⠀
 ```
 
 1. Typing in "whoami" as the shell waits
 2. Pressing [ENTER]. The shell will process the command (launch the program `whoami`)
 
 ---
 
 count: false
 
 ```
 user@remote:~ $ whoami
 user
 ⠀
 ```
 
 1. Typing in "whoami" as the shell waits.
 2. Pressing [ENTER]. The shell will process the command — launch the program `whoami`.
 3. The program will take over input/output — in this case, it will output your username).
 
 ---
 
 count: false
 
 ```
 user@remote:~ $ whoami
 user
 user@remote:~ $ ⠀
 ```
 
 1. Typing in "whoami" as the shell waits.
 2. Pressing [ENTER]. The shell will process the command — launch the program `whoami`.
 3. The program will take over input/output — in this case, it will output your username).
 4. The program terminates, and control returns to the shell; it shows a new prompt.
 
 ---
 
 layout: false
 
 # Try it!
 
 Here's a few commands for you to try:
 
 ```
 whoami
 
 echo Hello!
 
 pwd
 
 ls -l
 
 date
 
 sleep 3
 
 clear
 
 history 5
 ```
 
 Each should do something and return you to the shell prompt.  
 Can you guess what they do?
 
 Note that you can use up/down arrows to access/repeat previous commands.
 
 ---
 
 # Safety first, or emergency exits!
 
 So far every command we encountered automatically returned control back to the shell.
 
 But what if a program is stuck, or expecting some input and you're not sure what to do?
 
 Typical shortcuts to stop / quit a program:
 
 * `Ctrl` + `C` (also called .highlight[interrupt])
 * `Esc` (from ".highlight[escape]")
 * `q` (from ".highlight[q]uit")
 * `Ctrl` + `D` (.highlight[end of input], in case a program is waiting)
 
 If you try those, usually you'll either exit the program or get some hint on how to do it.
 
 `Ctrl` is sometimes denoted as `^`, e.g. `^C` for `Ctrl`+`C`.
 
 ---
 
-exclude: true
-
 # Anatomy of a shell command
 
 The shell expects input. What does it (typically) look like?
 
 ```
 user@remote:~ $ program -f --option abc 123
 ```
 
 Here, `program` is the .highlight[command] being executed, and the rest is the list of its .highlight[arguments]:
 
 1. `-f`
 2. `--option`
 3. `abc`
 4. `123`
 
 Arguments that start with `-` or `--` are often called .highlight[flags] or .highlight[switches] and traditionally change
 some options of the command.

 # The Working Directory
 
 One of the commands you executed, `pwd`, printed a directory path (of your home directory, by default):
 
 ```
 akashev@submit01:~ $ pwd
 /home/ubelix/math/akashev
 ```
 
 --
 
 .mnemonic[
   `pwd` stands for .highlight[P]rint .highlight[W]orking .highlight[D]irectory
 ]
 
 --
 
 Whenever you use the shell, there is a concept of the current (or "working") directory.
 This affects how commands search for files and how they interpret paths.
 
 Think of it as of "where" you are: if a server is a building you're in, a working directory
   is the room you're in within that building.
 
 
 ---
 
 # The Working Directory
 
 One of the commands you executed, `pwd`, printed a directory path (of your home directory, by default):
 
 ```
 akashev@submit01:~ $ pwd
 /home/ubelix/math/akashev
 ```
 
 Usually, this information is printed in the shell prompt itself, to remind you of the current state.
 
 --
 
 In this example it's `~`, which represents the .highlight[home directory].
 
 --
 
 Here's how it would look if you were somewhere else, for example in `/var/log`:
 
 ```
 akashev@submit01:/var/log $
 ```
 
 ---
 
 # UNIX directory structure
 
 If you're reading this tutorial, you likely already know that files are normally organized
   into nested "directories" (or "folders"). For example, on Windows you may have such a path:
 
 ```
 C:\folder\subfolder\file
 ```
 
 On Linux, paths looks similarly:
 
 ```
 /home/user/folder/subfolder/file
 ```
 
 ---
 
 # UNIX directory structure
 
 ```
 /folder/subfolder/file
 ```
 
 * a file .highlight[`file`]
 * inside a directory .highlight[`subfolder`]
 * which is inside a directory .highlight[`folder`]
 * which itself is inside the .highlight[root directory] `/`
 
 ![](assets/file-tree.svg)
 
 ---
 
 # The `/` as directory separator
 
 Forward slashes (`/`) separate the folders in the path.  
 Using multiple is valid, so the following is the same file:
 
 ```
 /home/user/folder/subfolder/file
 ///home/user///folder/subfolder//file
 ```
 
 --
 
 A path to a regular file never ends in `/`, e.g. this is not valid:
 
 ```
 /home/user/folder/subfolder/file/
 ```
 
 --
 
 Directories can be referred to with or without the final `/`:
 
 ```
 /home/user/folder/subfolder
 /home/user/folder/subfolder/
 ```
 
 --
 
 Root directory is special: `/` is its only name.
 
 ---
 
 # Absolute and relative paths
 
 If a path starts with `/`, it's an .highlight[absolute] path that starts at root:
 
 ```
 /home/user/folder/subfolder/file
 ```
 
 --
 
 If it does not, then it's a .highlight[relative] path
 that starts at the current working directory instead of `/`.
 
 If the current working directory is
 
 ```
 /home/user/folder
 ```
 
 then the following paths point to the same file:
 
 ```
 /home/user/folder/subfolder/file
 subfolder/file
 ```
 
 ---
 
 # Absolute and relative paths
 
 ```
 /home/user/folder/subfolder/file
 subfolder/file
 ```
 
 ![:scale 60%](assets/File-tree-2.svg)
 
 ---
 
 # Special folders `.` and `..`
 
 There are 2 special folders inside each folder: `.` and `..`
 
 * `.` points to the folder itself.
 
 ```
 /home/user/folder/subfolder/./file
 ```
 
 --
 
 * `..` points to one folder "up" in the path. At root, it points to root itself.
 
 ```
 /home/user/another_folder/../folder/file
 /home/../../home/user/folder/file
 ```
 --
 
 It's mostly important for relative paths:
 
 ```
 # From /home/user/another_folder
 ../folder/file
 ```
 
 ---
 
 # Special folders `.` and `..`
 
 From `/home/user/another_folder`
 
 ```
 /home/user/folder/subfolder/file
 .././folder/subfolder/file
 ```
 
 ![:scale 60%](assets/File-tree-3.svg)
 
 ---
 
 # Home directories
 
 Each user has a .highlight[home directory] assigned.
 
 It acts as your default working directory.
 
 By convention, its path usually starts with `/home/`
 and ends with your username:
 
 ```
 /home/<maybe something else>/username
 ```
 
 It's frequently referred to as `~`:
 
 ```
 /home/username/folder/file
 ~/folder/file
 ```
 
 You can even refer to others' home folder with `~username`:
 
 ```
 /home/someone/file
 ~someone/file
 ```

 For that, we need the `cd` command:
 
 ```
 user@remote:~ $ cd scits-training
 user@remote:~/scits-training $ pwd
 /home/username/scits-training
 user@remote:~/scits-training $
 ```
 
 .acronym[
 `cd` stands for ".highlight[C]hange .highlight[D]irectory"
 ]
 
 ---
 
 # Moving around 
 
 The general format of the command is `cd DESTINATION`, where `DESTINATION` is a path
 (relative or absolute) to a directory.
 
 ```
 user@remote:~ $ cd scits-training
 user@remote:~/scits-training $ cd /usr/local/bin
 user@remote:/usr/local/bin $
 ```
 
 --
 
 To go "back up", one uses the special `..` directory:
 
 ```
 user@remote:/var/local/bin $ cd ..
 user@remote:/usr/local $ cd ../..
 user@remote:/ $
 ```
 
 --
 
 To go to your home directory, you can use `~`:
 
 ```
 user@remote:/ $ cd ~
 user@remote:~ $
 ```
 
 ---
 
 # `cd` shortcuts
 
 There are two useful tricks when using `cd`:
 
 "`cd -`" goes back to the previous directory you were in:
 
 ```
 user@remote:~ $ cd -
 user@remote:/ $
 ```
 
 And "`cd`" without arguments goes to your home folder:
 ```
 user@remote:/ $ cd
 user@remote:~ $
 ```

 # Tab-completion
 
 This is a good point to introduce a helpful CLI tool: .highlight[tab completion]
 
 When entering a command, you can press the `[Tab]` key to suggest a command, or path,
 based on already entered input.
 
 ```
 user@remote:~ $ cd scits-training/a
 ```
 
 Pressing `[Tab]` now completes the name, since it's the only one that matches the beginning:
 
 ```
 user@remote:~ $ cd scits-training/animals/
 ```
 
 (continues on next slide)
 
 ---
 
 layout: true
 
 # Tab-completion
 
 ```
 user@remote:~ $ cd scits-training/animals/
 ```
 
 Pressing `[Tab]` once again won't change anything, since there are mutiple choices for completion;
 however, if it is pressed again, it shows possibilities:
 
 ```
 user@remote:~ $ cd scits-training/animals/
 Aardvark/ Badger/
 user@remote:~ $ cd scits-training/animals/
 ```
 
 ---
 
 ---
 
 count: false
 
 The shell needs to know the next letter to proceed. So, we type only "A" and press `Tab` again:
 
 ```
 user@remote:~ $ cd scits-training/animals/A
 ```
 
 ---
 
 count: false
 
 The shell needs to know the next letter to proceed. So, we type only "A" and press `Tab` again:

 # Looking around
 
 To look around in a UNIX filesystem, you use the `ls` command:
 
 ```
 user@remote:~/scits-training/animals/Aardvark/ $ ls
 description  empty_file  <span style="color:#3030ff;font-weight:bold">subfolder</span>
 ```
 
 .mnemonic[
 `ls` stands for .highlight[list]
 ]
 
 This lists the names for contents of the working directory.
 
 --
 
 We can specify another folder to look at:
 
 ```
 user@remote:~/scits-training/animals/Aardvark/ $ ls ../Badger/
 Arctonyx  Meles  Mellivora  Melogale  Mydaus
 ```
 
 ---
 
 # Looking around (in depth)
 
 To show more information, we can use the `-l` (for .highlight[l]ong) flag:
 
 ```
 user@remote:~/scits-training/animals/Aardvark/ $ ls -l
 total 25640
 -rw-r--r-- 1 username groupname 26214400 Aug 28 18:20 big_file
 -rw-r--r-- 1 username groupname      754 Aug 25 17:55 description
 -rw-r--r-- 1 username groupname        0 Aug 28 16:51 empty_file
 drwxr-xr-x 2 username groupname     4096 Aug 28 16:52 <span style="color:#3030ff;font-weight:bold">subfolder</span>
 ```
 
 Important information from this output:
 
 * `-rw-r--r--` is called the .highlight[mode] (explained in Part II).
   * `d` denotes .highlight[directory] in this example.
   * `rw-r--r--` deals with permissions for the files.
 * `username` and `groupname` are .highlight[owners] of the file.
 * The number after `groupname` is the .highlight[size] (in bytes) of the file.
   * Important: for folders, it's not the size of all contents.
+    You need `du` ("disk usage") to calculate that.
 * The date/time after the size is the .highlight[modification date].
 
 ---
 
 # Looking around (as puny humans)
 
 One can use the flag `-h` (for .highlight[h]uman-readable) for more familiar size units:
 
 ```
 user@remote:~/scits-training/animals/Aardvark/ $ ls -l -h
 total 26M
 -rw-r--r-- 1 username groupname  25M Aug 28 18:20 big_file
 -rw-r--r-- 1 username groupname  754 Aug 25 17:55 description
 -rw-r--r-- 1 username groupname    0 Aug 28 16:51 empty_file
 drwxr-xr-x 2 username groupname 4096 Aug 28 16:52 <span style="color:#3030ff;font-weight:bold">subfolder</span>
 ```
 
 Single-letter flags in commands can often be combined:  
 
 ```
 user@remote:~/scits-training/animals/Aardvark/ $ ls -lh
 total 26M
 -rw-r--r-- 1 username groupname  25M Aug 28 18:20 big_file
 -rw-r--r-- 1 username groupname  754 Aug 25 17:55 description
 -rw-r--r-- 1 username groupname    0 Aug 28 16:51 empty_file
 drwxr-xr-x 2 username groupname 4096 Aug 28 16:52 <span style="color:#3030ff;font-weight:bold">subfolder</span>
 ```
 
 ---
 
 # Looking around (into hidden corners)
 
 Another often-used flag is `-a` (for .highlight[a]ll): it lists contents with names that start with a dot `.`
 which are normally hidden in UNIX.
 
 ```
 user@remote:~/scits-training/animals/Aardvark/ $ ls -a
 <span style="color:#3030ff;font-weight:bold">.</span>  <span style="color:#3030ff;font-weight:bold">..</span>  big_file  description  empty_file  .hidden  <span style="color:#3030ff;font-weight:bold">subfolder</span>
 ```
 
 As usual, it can be combined with others:
 
 ```
 user@remote:~/scits-training/animals/Aardvark/ $ ls -lah
 total 26M
 drwxr-xr-x 2 username groupname 4096 Aug 28 16:52 <span style="color:#3030ff;font-weight:bold">.</span>
 drwxr-xr-x 2 username groupname 4096 Aug 28 16:52 <span style="color:#3030ff;font-weight:bold">..</span>
 -rw-r--r-- 1 username groupname  25M Aug 28 18:20 big_file

 # Looking around (in orderly fashion)
 
 By default, files are ordered by name.
 
 This behavior can be changed with flags; here are some examples:
 
 * `-r` .highlight[r]everses the sort order.
 * `-S` sorts files by .highlight[s]ize.
 * `-t` sorts files by modification .highlight[t]ime.
 * `-X` sorts files by filename e.highlight[x]tension, e.g. `png` in `image.png`.
 
 As usual, this can be combined with the previous ones.

 # Getting help
 
 Some common methods of getting help:
 
 ---
 
 * Many programs support .highlight[`--help` flag] to print out their usage instructions:
 
 ```
 user@remote:~/scits-training/animals/Aardvark/ $ ls --help
 Usage: ls [OPTION]... [FILE]...
 List information about the FILEs (the current directory by default).
 Sort entries alphabetically if none of -cftuvSUX nor --sort is specified.
 
 Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options too.
   -a, --all                  do not ignore entries starting with .
 [...]
 ```
 
 ---
 
 * For most programs, you can look up their .highlight[manual file] with `man`:
 
 ```
 user@remote:~/scits-training/animals/Aardvark/ $ man ls
 ```
 
 Instead of just outputting the text and returning, you'll enter a mode for showing long files.
 
 Look around using arrow keys and `PgDn`/`PgUp`.
 
 Remember the hints on how to exit (here, it's `q`).
 
 You can search a `man` page for "something" with `/something` and just `/` to go to the next find.
 
 ---
 
 * Some commands are not separate programs, but are .highlight[built into the shell], e.g. `cd`.
   For those, you can use `help`:
 
 ```
 user@remote:~/scits-training/animals/Aardvark/ $ help cd
 ```
 
 --
 
 You can see what `help` can help with as well:
 
 ```
 user@remote:~/scits-training/animals/Aardvark/ $ help
 ```
 
 ---
 
 layout: false
 
 # Try out `man`
 
 Try opening the manual for `ls`:
 
 ```
 user@remote:~/scits-training/animals/Aardvark/ $ man ls
 ```
 
 Reminders:
 
 * You can search a `man` page for "something" with `/something` and `n` to go to the next find.
 
 * To exit, you can use `q`.
 
 .exercise[
 Try searching for the meaning of `-R` flag, and try to use it.

 # Reading files
 
 We know how to look around the filesystem (with `ls`) and how to move around (with `cd`).
 
 However, we still need to access the contents of files.
 
 There are many ways to do that, I'll show a few more common ones.
 
 ---

 # Simple file reading
 
 The simplest program to read the file is `cat`
 
 ```
 user@remote:~/scits-training/animals/Aardvark/ $ ls
 big_file  description  empty_file  naming  <span style="color:#3030ff;font-weight:bold">subfolder</span>
 user@remote:~/scits-training/animals/Aardvark/ $ cat description

 [...]
 ```
 
 .mnemonic[
 `cat` comes from the word "con.highlight[cat]enate",  
 which means joining things together in a series.
 ]
 
 .exercise[
 What happens if we call `cat` with two filenames?
 
 ```cat description naming```

 # File is too long!
 
 Sometimes a file is too long to be comfortably read with `cat`
 
 ```
 user@remote:~/scits-training/animals/Aardvark/ $ cd ../../numbers/
 user@remote:~/scits-training/numbers/ $ cat hundred
 1
 2
 [...]
 99
 100
 ```
 
 A hundred lines is too much to fit into the terminal window.
 
 While you can scroll to look through the output, sometimes files are much longer than that.
 
 We can display only parts of the file, or use a program that allows to navigate a file.
 
 ---
 
 background-image: url(assets/cat_parts.svg)
 background-position: top 5% right 30%
 background-size: 15%
 
 # Parts of a cat?
 
 If a cat is too long, perhaps we only need to look at its beginning (`head`)
 or end (`tail`):
 
 ```
 user@remote:~/scits-training/numbers/ $ head hundred
 1
 [...]
 10
 ```
 
 ```
 user@remote:~/scits-training/numbers/ $ tail hundred
 91
 [...]
 100
 ```
 
 Those commands display the first and last 10 lines of a file, respectively.
 
 .mnemonic[
   Remembering `cat` together with `head` and `tail` may help.
 ]
 
 ---
 
 # Self-help test
 
 Of course, you can look up other options with the self-help methods like `man`.
 
 .exercise[
 Use one of the help methods (`man head` or `head --help`) to learn how to display 5 lines instead of 10 with `head`.
 ]
 
 Hint: it will be a flag that should go before the filename.
 
 --
 
 **Answer:** `-n 5`, `-n5` or `--lines=5`
 
 ```
 user@remote:~/scits-training/numbers/ $ head -n 5 hundred
 1
 2
 3
 4
 5
 ```
 
 ---
 
 # The file is too long, show less
 
 One way to navigate a big file is `less`:
 
 ```
 user@remote:~/scits-training/numbers/ $ less hundred
 ```
 
 You will recognize this interface, since `man` also uses `less`.
 
 Commands to try:
 * .highlight[Arrow keys] to scroll line by line
 * .highlight[`PgUp`] / .highlight[`PgDn`] to scroll screen by screen
 * .highlight[`/something`] to search for "something"
 * .highlight[`n`] to go to next found "something", .highlight[`N`] to go back
 * .highlight[`>`] to go to the end of the file, .highlight[`<`] to go to the beginning
 * .highlight[`h`] to show help
 * .highlight[`q`] to quit

 # Modifying files
 
 Besides reading, we need to be able to create and modify files.
 
 There are many editors available, and which one is "best" can lead to [hot debate](https://xkcd.com/378/).
 
 We will mention and briefly explain two editors that are likely to be installed on any system you encounter nowadays.
 
 * `nano`
 * `vim`

 # `nano`
 
 `nano` is a small and simple editor which helpfully shows its commands at the bottom (reminder, `^` means `Ctrl`):
 
 ```

 ```
 
 You can use arrow keys to move around, input text as normal from where the cursor is.
 
 Key commands:
 
 * `Ctrl` + `W` ".highlight[w]here is" for searching the file
 * `Ctrl` + `O` "write .highlight[o]ut" to save changes
 * `Ctrl` + `X` "e.highlight[x]it" to get back to the shell

 # `vim`
 
 `vim` (or, technically, "Vi IMproved") is one of two "Swiss knife" editors that
 most Linux professionals prefer to use (the other one being `emacs`).
 
 `vim` is available almost everywhere, and with proper configuration can do
 very sophisticated things.
 
 With power comes complexity, but for basic editing one doesn't have to remember a lot.
 
 If you wish to (later) explore `vim`, you can go through its built-in tutorial:
 
 ```

 # Organizing files and folders
 
 To recap, you should now be able to:
 
 * Navigate the file tree (with `cd`)
 * List folder contents (with `ls`)
 * Read and write files (with `nano`)
 
 Our goal now is:
 
 * Make new folders
 * To move and copy files and folders around
 * Delete files and folders
 
 ---
 
 # Creating new folders
 
 To create new folders, use the `mkdir` command:
 
 ```
 user@remote:~/scits-training/numbers/ $ cd ..
 user@remote:~/scits-training/ $ ls
 <span style="color:#3030ff;font-weight:bold">animals</span>  <span style="color:#3030ff;font-weight:bold">numbers</span>

 ```
 
 .mnemonic[
   .highlight[`mkdir`] stands for .highlight[make dir]ectory

 # Creating new folders
 
 `mkdir` will fail if the folder already exists:
 
 ```
 user@remote:~/scits-training/ $ mkdir new-folder
 mkdir: cannot create directory ‘new-folder’: File exists

 Using it with `-p` means "create if needed", and also works with chains of directories:
 
 ```
 user@remote:~/scits-training/ $ mkdir -p new-folder/subfolder/subsubfolder
 user@remote:~/scits-training/ $ ls -R new-folder
 new-folder:

 # Moving files
 
 Move operations can be broken down into two cases:
 
 1. Moving files and folders between folders:
 
   `folder1/something` → `folder2/something`
 
 2. Renaming files and folders: 
 
   `something` → `other`
 
   Technically, it's "moving" from old name to new.
 
 Both cases are served with the `mv` command.

 .mnemonic[
   .highlight[`cp`] stands for .highlight[copy].

 # Copying folders
 
 `cp`, unlike `mv`, will not copy directories by default:

 # Deleting
 
 To remove files or folders, use `rm`
 
 .mnemonic[
   .highlight[`rm`] stands for .highlight[rem]ove
 ]
 
 * `rm NAME` to remove a file
 * `rm -r FOLDER` to remove a folder
 
 You can pass several names at once:
 
 ```
-$ rm destination/subfolder/B10 destination/subfolder/B2
+$ rm destination/experiment_B/input_0 destination/experiment_B/output_0
 ```
 
 ---
 
 # `rm` is unrecoverable!
 
 When you delete files and folders with `rm`, you should be aware that there is no concept of "Trash".
 
 Anything you delete (or overwrite) is lost with no easy way to recover.
 
 You can use a flag `-i` to ask before any destructive operation.
 
 ```
-user@remote:~/scits-training/moving $ cp -i -R source/subfolder destination
-cp: overwrite 'destination/subfolder/B1'?
+user@remote:~/scits-training/moving $ cp -i -R source/experiment_B destination
+cp: overwrite 'destination/experiment_B/input_1'?
 ```
 
 On the other hand, sometimes you want to override those confirmations, especially for `rm` – you can do it with `-f`.

 ```
 
 We may want to copy them all at once. We can use wildcards:
 
 * .highlight[`*`] in a name means "any amount of any characters"
   * For example, .highlight[`A*`] can mean `A`, `A1` and `A10`
 * .highlight[`?`] in a name means "any single character"
   * For example, .highlight[`A?`] can mean `A1`, `A6` but not `A10`
 
 The wildcards will .highlight[not jump through directories]:
 
 * .highlight[`*1`] can mean `A1`, `A11`, but not `subfolder/B1`
 * .highlight[`\*/\*`] can match `subfolder/B1`

 # Moving data in and out
 
 So far we have moved the data around on the system itself.
 
 It doesn't help if you want to load external data or
 download the results of your programs.
 
 --
 
 Perhaps, it's your own system and you have access to cloud storage
 or external storage devices.
 
 Sometimes, you have a shared network folder between your computer
 and the target system.
 
 But how to do it, if your only interface to the server is SSH?
 
 --
 
 We will cover two ways:
 
 1. Downloading data from the Internet with `wget`
 
 2. Copying data between computers with `scp`
 
 ---
 
 # Downloading from the shell
 
 Sometimes, the data you need is a file on the Internet.
 
 `wget` is the simplest-to-use tool for it:
 
 ```

 user@remote:~/scits-training/ $ wget https://example.com/
 --2017-09-12 12:00:00--  https://example.com/

 # Downloading from the shell

 ```
 $ wget https://tools.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1149.txt -O april.txt
 [...]
 $ less april.txt
 ```
 
 As usual, use `man wget` to see more options.
 
 It can work with HTTP/HTTPS/FTP-hosted files.
 
+--
+
+.highlight[`curl`] is another option, which simply outputs the file.
+
+```
+$ curl https://scits.math.unibe.ch/script
+```
+
+We'll see how to actually use that in a little bit.

 # Transferring files between systems
 
 To send files between two computers using SSH, the simplest command is `scp`.
 
 .mnemonic[
   .highlight[`scp`] stands for .highlight[secure copy]
 ]
 
 `scp` behaves a lot like `cp`, but you can provide locations on other computers.
 
 How to use `scp` on your own machine depends on the OS.

 # Processes and their input/output
 
 When you're connected to a Linux system,
   what you normally see is the shell prompt, awaiting input:
 
 ```
 user@host:~ $
 ```
 
 A .highlight[process] called shell is responsible for input/output at this moment.
 
 By default, the input is either a keyboard connected to the system,
   or your keypresses being relayed over the network.
 
 The output, by default, is the screen connected to the system,
   or text being relayed for display over the network.
 
 ---
 
 # Processes and their input/output
 
 Those are called .highlight[standard input] and .highlight[standard output],
   or .highlight[STDIN/STDOUT].
 
 .center[
   ![](assets/shell_stdio.svg)
 ]
 
 --
 
 If the user issues a command that calls another program, the shell
   creates a .highlight[child process] and attaches the input/output to it.
 
 .center[
   ![](assets/child_stdio.svg)
 ]
 
 The shell will wait until the program terminates,
   after which STDIN/STDOUT get reattached and a prompt is displayed.
 
 ---
 
 # Redirecting output
 
 Sometimes, we want to capture what a command is outputting to the screen.
 
 For example, suppose that we want to save into a file the directory structure returned by `ls -R`:
 
 ```
 user@host:~ $ ls -R ~/scits-training
 scits-training:
 animals  moving  numbers  io  scripts
 [...]
 user@host:~ $
 ```
 
 We can instruct the shell to .highlight[redirect] the standard output:
 
 .center[
   ![](assets/stdout_redirect.svg)
 ]
 
 ---
 
 # Redirecting output
 
 To redirect the output, we add .highlight[`> FILE`] to the command:
 
 ```
 user@host:~ $ cd ~/scits-training/io
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ ls -R ~/scits-training > listing
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ cat listing
 scits-training:
 animals  moving  numbers  io  scripts
 [...]
 ```
 
 This will overwrite the contents of `FILE` (if any) with the output of the command.
 
 The file will be created, if it does not exist yet.
 
 ---
 
 # Appending output
 
 Sometimes we don't want to overwrite (sometimes called "clobber") the file
   with new contents and add them to the end instead.
 
 To do that, use .highlight[`>> FILE`] instead of `> FILE`.
 
 .exercise[
 1. Try running the command `date` to see what it outputs.
 
 2. Run `date` 3 times, appending the output to a file `date.log`.
 
 3. Verify with `cat` that the file contains 3 records.
 ]
 
 ---
 
 # Error output
 
 Try saving the output of a command with errors
 and you'll see that it still outputs to the screen:
 
 ```
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ ls , > listing
 ls: cannot access ,: No such file or directory
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $
 ```
 
 --
 
 This is intentional: Linux actually has two output streams for
   its command line, STDOUT for normal data and .highlight[STDERR] for errors.
 
 .center[
   ![](assets/stderr.svg)
 ]
 
 This simplifies debugging: errors are separate from data.
 
 ---
 
 # Error output
 
 STDERR is not redirected when using `>` or `>>`:
 
 .center[
   ![](assets/stderr_noredirect.svg)
 ]
 
 --
 
 It's possible to redirect it as well with .highlight[`2>`] or .highlight[`2>>`]:
 
 ```
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ ls .. , > listing 2> errors
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ cat errors
 ls: cannot access ,: No such file or directory
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ cat listing
 ..:
 animals  io  moving  numbers  scripts
 ```
 
 ---
 
 # Discarding output
 
 Sometimes we don't need output at all.
 
 In this case, we can redirect it to a special file, .highlight[`/dev/null`]
 
 It's a .highlight[device] that will accept any input, discarding it immediately.
 
 --
 
 For example, one might want to silence errors:
 
 ```
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ ls .. , 2> /dev/null
 ..:
 animals  io  moving  numbers  scripts
 ```
 
 ---
 
 # Interactive input
 
 Most commands we've seen don't require any interactive input.
 
 `tr` (for .highlight[translate]) is a command that transforms its input:
   it substitutes some characters with others.
 
 For example, `tr 'a-z' 'A-Z'` would translate all lowercase letters into uppercase.
 
 --
 
 Let's try this:
 
 ```
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ tr 'a-z' 'A-Z'
 Let's input some text
 LET'S INPUT SOME TEXT
 ```
 
 ---
 
 # Interactive input
 
 ```
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ tr 'a-z' 'A-Z'
 Let's input some text
 LET'S INPUT SOME TEXT
 But enter doesn't stop it!
 BUT ENTER DOESN'T STOP IT!
 ```
 
 A problem: text can contain many lines, and the program won't know when to stop.
 
 --
 
 We can terminate the program with Ctrl+C, but it actually expects an .highlight[end of input].
 
 We can signal end of input with Ctrl+D on an empty line (or pressing it twice).
 
 --
 
 .exercise[
   What happens if we press Ctrl+D while back at the shell prompt?
 ]
 
 ---
 
 # Redirecting input
 
 What if we want to use a file as an input in a command that doesn't accept files as arguments,
   we need instruct the shell to use the file as the program's standard input:
 
 .center[
   ![](assets/stdin_redirect.svg)
 ]
 
 This is done with adding .highlight[`< FILE`] to the command.
 
 ```
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ tr 'a-z' 'A-Z' < errors
 LS: CANNOT ACCESS ,: NO SUCH FILE OR DIRECTORY
 ```
 
 ---
 
 # Redirects
 
 .exercise[
 1. Combine input and output redirection to save the output of last `tr` command into `errors.uppercase`
 
 2. Use `cat` to verify the saved output.
 ]
 
 ---
 
-# Pipelines
+# Pipes
 
 We have shown how to save outputs to a file, and further process files as inputs.
 
 Sometimes, we don't need to save this intermediate representation.
 In that case, we can directly connect the output of one program to the input of another
 with .highlight[pipes].
 
 To do so, separate two commands with .highlight[`|`]:
 
 ```
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ ls . | tr 'a-z' 'A-Z'
 DATE.LOG
 ERRORS
 ERRORS.UPPERCASE
 LISTING
 ```
 ---
 
-# Pipelines
+# Pipes
 
 ```
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ ls . | tr 'a-z' 'A-Z'
 DATE.LOG
 ERRORS
 ERRORS.UPPERCASE
 LISTING
 ```
 
 Given this command, shell starts two processes in parallel and ties their respective output and input together.
 
 Standard input/output is connected at the ends of the chain:
 
 .center[
   ![](assets/pipe.svg)
 ]
 
 --
 
 Such .highlight[pipelines] can be longer than two commands, and can be combined with file redirects.
 
 ---
 
-# Filtering output
+# Example: Filtering output
 
 One extremely useful command used in pipes is `grep`.
 
 It allows to search for text patterns. Example:
 
 ```
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ ls .
 date.log
 errors
 errors.uppercase
 listing
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ ls . | grep log
 date.log
 ```
 
 `grep` is versatile:
 
 * Can be used with .highlight[regular expression] patterns
 * Can search for non-matching lines (with `-v`)
 * Can search in files
 * Can print where the match happened in a file
 
 See `man grep` or Google for more examples.

 You will notice that all errors are still output normally:

 ls: cannot access ,: No such file or directory

 As before, errors are not normally redirected, and collected from all processes in the pipe:

 # Background jobs
 
 Recall that, when running a command, the shell waits until it is terminated: all input goes to the program (or nowhere).
 
 .center[
   ![](assets/child_stdio.svg)
 ]
 
 Sometimes, we don't need to wait until the program terminates – we actually want it running in background.
 
 ---
 
 # Background jobs
 
 If you specify .highlight[`&`] at the end of the command, the shell will start it, but keep control of STDIN:
 
 .center[
   ![](assets/job_stdio.svg)
 ]
 
 Instead of a .highlight[foreground] process, it becomes a .highlight[background] job.
 
 --
 
 You are immediately returned to the shell and can run other commands while the job executes.
 
 Note that both the shell and the background job are connected to STDOUT.
 Redirect output to prevent mix-ups.
 
 ---
 
 # Background jobs
 
 Compare:
 
 ```
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ sleep 3
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ sleep 3 &
 [1] 12231
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $
 ```
 
 Here, `[1]` is the .highlight[job number], and `12231` is the .highlight[process ID], or PID.
 
 After 3 seconds and when another command finishes (you can just press Enter for an empty command),
 you'll be informed that the job terminated:
 
 ```
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $
 [1]+  Done                    sleep 3
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $
 ```
 
 ---
 
 # Listing jobs
 
 You can list running background jobs with .highlight[`jobs`]:
 
 ```
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ sleep 100 &
 [1] 12232
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ sleep 0 &
 [2] 12233
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ jobs
 [1]-  Running                 sleep 100 &
 [2]+  Done                    sleep 0
 ```
 
 ---
 
 # Terminating jobs
 
 You can forcibly .highlight[terminate] a job with the .highlight[`kill`] command,
   which accepts either PID or job ID (with `%`):
 
 ```
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ sleep 100 &
 [1] 12234
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ kill 12234
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ jobs
 [1]+  Terminated              sleep 100
 
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ sleep 100 &
 [1] 12235
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ kill %1
 ```
 
 You can search for more process IDs to terminate with .highlight[`ps ax`], in case something is misbehaving.
 
 ---
 
 # Stopped jobs
 
 Background jobs have nothing connected to their standard input.
 
 If a background job cannot continue without user input, it will .highlight[stop],
 which the shell will signal to you:
 
 ```
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ tr 'a-z' 'A-Z' &
 [1] 12236
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $
 [1]+  Stopped                 tr /a-z/ /A-Z/
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $
 ```
 
 --
 
 You can bring a job to .highlight[foreground] to pass STDIN from the shell
 to the running job with `fg` (or `fg %N` for a specific job number):
 
 ```
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ fg
 tr /a-z/ /A-Z/
 You are now talking to the job
 YOU ARE NOW TALKING TO THE JOB
 ```
 
 ---
 
 # Stopping and resuming programs
 
 You can stop most currently-running programs with `Ctrl`+`Z`:
 
 ```
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ sleep 100
 ^Z
 [1]+  Stopped                 sleep 100
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $
 ```
 
 --
 
 From there, you can use `fg` to resume normal execution of the program,
   or use .highlight[`bg`] to let it continue to run in the background.
 
 ```
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ bg
 [1]+ sleep 100 &
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ jobs
 [1]+  Running                 sleep 100 &
 ```
 
 ---
 
 # Background jobs are fragile
 
 What will happen if you start a background job, and then close the terminal?
 
 --
 
 Closing the terminal (or disconnecting the SSH session) kills the shell you were talking to.
 Since the job was a .highlight[child process] of that shell, it will also be killed.
 
 --
 
 A minor inconvenience if you're working on your own machine (you can just leave the terminal open),
 but a much bigger problem with remote connections.
 
 If the connection is broken, the shell is also terminated along with all processes launched from it.
 
 How to protect against it?
 
 ---
 
 # `screen`
 
 To protect your session, you can use .highlight[`screen`].
 
 `screen` starts a new shell that exists independently of your current one.
 
 Even if the current shell dies (e.g. because you disconnected),
 the shell running in `screen` will continue together with all its child processes.
 
 --
 
 Starting a new `screen` session is simple:
 
 ```
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ screen
 [terminal screen is cleared]
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ echo "Hello, I'm in a screen"
 Hello, I'm in a screen!
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $
 ```
 
 ---
 
 # Reattaching to `screen`
 
 Now suppose your connection was terminated.
 
 Close the terminal where it is running to simulate that, then log in again.
 
 --
 
 You can use .highlight[`screen -ls`] to list active sessions:
 
 ```
 user@host:~ $ screen -ls
 There is a screen on:
         13383.pts-2.host        (11/09/17 03:02:23)     (Detached)
 1 Socket in /var/run/screen/S-user.
 ```
 
 --
 
 You can attach to a screen session (possibly detaching it first, if it's being used somewhere)
   with .highlight[`-dR`] (for .highlight[detach, reattach])
 
 ```
 user@host:~ $ screen -dR
 [terminal screen is cleared]
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ echo "Hello, I'm in a screen"
 Hello, I'm in a screen!
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $
 ```
 
 ---
 
 # Controlling `screen`
 
 `screen` can be used for other things, such as having multiple parallel shell sessions open.
 
 Controlling screen consists of pressing .highlight[`Ctrl`+`A`], then a screen-specific command.
 
 For example,
 
 * .highlight[`c`] will .highlight[create] a new shell within screen
 * .highlight[`n`] will switch to the .highlight[next] shell
 * .highlight[`d`] will .highlight[detach] from `screen`, returning you to the original shell
 
 Finally, you can use .highlight[`?`] to access built-in help,
 or use `man screen` for a more detailed manual.
 
 --
 
 Another popular alternative to `screen` is `tmux`. It will not be covered by this tutorial,
   but is worth looking into.

 # Users and groups
 
 Before we discuss permissions, we need to understand users and groups in Linux.
 
 A .highlight[user] is a unit of access control; it has a set of credentials to access the system
   and .highlight[owns] some files on it.
 
 A .highlight[group] is a collection of users to facilitate shared access to resources.
   A user can belong to many groups but one group is considered primary.
 
 You can use `id` to check your user and groups:
 
 ```
 akashev@submit01:~ $ id
 uid=7265(akashev) gid=1109(math) groups=1109(math),902(l_gaussian)
 ```
 
 Here, `akashev` is my user, `math` is my primary group and `l_gaussian` is another group I belong to.
 
 ---
 
 # Permissions: `rwx`
 
 Each file and directory in UNIX filesystems has 3 permissions (for a particular user).
 
 Regular files:
 * .highlight[`r`], or .highlight[Read], means that you can read the contents of a file.
 * .highlight[`w`], or .highlight[Write], means that you can modify the file.
 * .highlight[`x`], or .highlight[eXecute], means that the file may be launched as a program.
 
 Directories:
 * .highlight[`r`] means that you can read the list of files within the directory.
 * .highlight[`w`] means that you can add or delete files from the directory.
 * .highlight[`x`] means you can .highlight[traverse] the folder: enter it with `cd` and read the contents of its files.
 
 ---
 
 # Inspecting permissions
 
 Try running `ls -la` to see permissions on files and folders:
 
 ```
 $ ls -la
 total 20
 drwxrwxr-x 2 user group 4096 Sep 11 01:26 .
 drwxrwxr-x 6 user group 4096 Sep 10 23:06 ..
 -rw-rw-r-- 1 user group   90 Sep 10 23:08 date.log
 -rw-rw-r-- 1 user group   47 Sep 11 00:50 errors
 -rw-rw-r-- 1 user group   30 Sep 11 01:09 listing
 ```
 
 We're interested in the first column: the cryptic `drwxrwxr-x` and `-rw-rwr--`,
 which are called .highlight[mode].
 
 --
 
 * The first character denotes the .highlight[file type].
   * `-` means "regular file".
   * `d` means "directory".
 * The rest is divided in groups of three:
   * Access for the owner
   * Access for the group
   * Access for everyone else
 
 ---
 
 # File ownership
 
 ```
 drwxrwxr-x 2 user group 4096 Sep 11 01:26 .
 -rw-rw-r-- 1 user group   90 Sep 10 23:08 date.log
 ```
 
 Each file in a UNIX filesystem has an .highlight[owner] and a .highlight[group] attached.
 
 In the example above, `user` is the owner and `group` is the designated group.
 
 Note that the user .highlight[doesn't have to be in the assigned group].
 
 ---
 
 # Effective permissions
 
 ```
 -rwxr-x--- 1 user group   90 Sep 10 23:08 script
 ```
 
 To determine which permissions apply, the following is checked:
 
 * If the user is the owner, the first set applies (`rwx`, full permissions)
 * If the user is in the designated group, the second set applies (`r-x`, so cannot write)
 * For all other users, the third set applies (`---`, so cannot do anything)
 
 --
 
 A special user, .highlight[superuser] (normally called .highlight[root]),
   can completely disregard permissions and do anything to any file on the system.
 
 ---
 
 # Permissions: first match applies
 
 Note that the system does not apply "best" permissions – only the first set that matches.
 
 Let's reverse the situation:
 
 ```
 ----r-xrwx 1 user group   90 Sep 10 23:08 script
 ```
 
 For this file, the owner cannot do anything to the file, anyone in `group` cannot modify it,
   but everyone else has full permissions.
 
 Note: the owner can always change a file's permissions.
 
 ---
 
 # Modifying permissions
 
 To modify a file's permissions, use .highlight[`chmod CHANGES FILE`]
 
 .mnemonic[
   `chmod` stands for .highlight[change mode].
 ]
 
 Possible changes:
 * .highlight[`+r`], .highlight[`+w`], .highlight[`+x` add] permissions.
   Can combine: `+rw`
 * .highlight[`-r` removes] permissions.
 * .highlight[`=r`] sets pemissions to .highlight[exactly] `r--`.
 * Prefix .highlight[`u`] changes permissions for the .highlight[user], e.g. `u+r`.
 * Prefix .highlight[`g`] changes permissions for the .highlight[group], e.g. `g+rw`.
 * Prefix .highlight[`o`] changes permissions for .highlight[others], e.g. `o-w`.
 * Prefix .highlight[`a`] or no prefix changes permissions for .highlight[all] three sets.
 * An .highlight[octal number] (e.g. 750) sets permissions to a specific configuration
 (in this case, `rwxr-x---`).
 
 ---
 
 # Modifying permissions
 
 Several changes can be applied at once, separated by commas:
 
 ```
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ ls -la date.log
 -rwxrw-r-- 1 user group   90 Sep 10 23:08 date.log
 
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ chmod u+x,g=rx,o-r date.log
 
 user@host:~/scits-training/io $ ls -la date.log
 -rwxr-x--- 1 user group   90 Sep 10 23:08 date.log
 ```
 
 .exercise[
 Modify permissions on the file to be `r-xr--rw-`
 ]
 
 ---
 
 # Changing ownership
 
 Similarly to `chmod`, the .highlight[`chown`] command allows changing a file's owner and group.
 
 * `chown USER FILE` changes the owner
 * `chown :GROUP FILE` changes the group
 * `chown USER:GROUP FILE` changes both
 
 Note: once the owner is changed, the old owner no longer can modify access to the file.
 
 .highlight[For this reason, only administrators can change the file owner, or assign a group the owner is not part of.]
 
 .exercise[
-Use `groups` to list groups you belong to.
-
-Change a file's group to one of them, and then back to the original one.
+Use `groups` to list groups you belong to. Change any file's group to one of them.

 # Shell scripting
 
 Shell is not just an interface to launch other programs;
 it comes with its own scripting language to automate complex tasks.
 
 You can have variables, loops, conditionals – a full-featured programming language.
 
 We will only show the very basics.
 
 .exercise[
   Navigate to `~/scits-training/scripts` and open `boom.sh` in your favourite editor (nano, vim)
 ]
 
 ---
 
 layout: true
 
 # Shell scripting
 
 ```bash
 #!/bin/bash
 
 # I hope you get the reference
 echo "Someone set up us the bomb."
 for i in {5..1}
 do
   echo "$i.."
   sleep 1
 done
 explosion="Boom!"
 echo $explosion
 ```
 
 ---
 
 The first line of the script is special:
 ```bash
 #!/bin/bash
 ```
 
 It's called a .highlight["shebang"] (for .highlight[shell] and "!" .highlight[bang]).
 
 It tells the shell what to execute the rest of the script with.
 Since we're writing a `bash` shell script, we put there the path to `/bin/bash` itself.
 
 ---
 
 Other lines starting with .highlight[`#`] are .highlight[comments]
 ```bash
 # I hope you get the reference
 ```
 
 They are ignored by `bash` and are used to leave notes to yourself or others.
 
 ---
 
 .highlight[`echo`] command outputs its arguments to STDIN.
 
 ```bash
 echo "Someone set up us the bomb."
 ```
 
 Quotes are used to make text with spaces in it a single argument; here, they are optional.
 
 ---
 
 .highlight[`for`] designates a .highlight[loop]: a .highlight[variable `i`] will change from 5 to 1.
 
 ```bash
 for i in {5..1}
 do
   # something
 done
 ```
 
 The code in `# something` will repeat with `i` as 5, 4, 3, 2 and 1.
 
 `do` and `done` delimit the bounds of the loop.
 
 ---
 
 One can use the variable in expressions .highlight[prefixed by `$`], i.e. .highlight[`$i`]:
 
 ```bash
 echo "$i.."
 ```
 
 If there is ambiguity as to where a variable name ends, use braces: .highlight[`${i}`],
   e.g. `"Sample ${i}A"` for "Sample 1A", etc.
 
 ---
 
 Variables can also be simply .highlight[assigned to]:
 
 ```bash
 explosion="Boom!"
 echo $explosion
 ```
 
 The lack of spaces around `=` is .highlight[significant].  
 Otherwise Bash will try to execute `explosion` as a command.

 # Running a script
 
 OK, suppose we wrote the above script. How to execute it?
 
 1. We need to make sure that it's allowed to execute:
 
   ```
   user@host:~/scits-training/scripts $ chmod +x boom.sh
   ```
 
 2. For security reasons, the current directory is not automatically considered when
   starting other programs. We need to explicitly refer to it:
 
   ```
   user@host:~/scits-training/scripts $ ./boom.sh

 We'll write a simple script to determine if a user is old enough to drink beer.
 
 ---
 
 # Scripting, take two
 
 ```bash
 #!/bin/bash
 ```
 
 Any bash script should start with an appropriate shebang.
 
 We want to ask the user for his/her age; we can use the .highlight[`read`] command.
 
 ```bash
 # -n prevents a line break, and note the extra space
 echo -n "What's your age? "
 read age
 ```
 
 This will display a promt for the user and wait for input.
 The result is then stored in the variable `$age`.
 
 For simplicity, we will not check that the input is indeed a valid number.
 
 ---
 
 # Scripting, take two
 
 ```bash
 #!/bin/bash
 echo -n "What's your age? "
 read age
 ```
 
 We need to make a decision based on age; we need an if-then-else construct.
 
 ```bash
 if [ $age -lt 16 ]
 then
   echo "You're too young to drink!"
 else
   echo "You're old enough, have a beer!"
 fi
 ```
 
 .highlight[`fi`] here is `if` reversed, to close the .highlight[`if`] statement.
 
 Conditionals in bash are a bit clunky, but .highlight[`-lt`] here stands for .highlight[less than].
   Again, the whitespace here is .highlight[significant].
 
 ---
 
 # Scripting, take two
 
 ```bash
 #!/bin/bash

 # Scripting improvements
 
 Let's add a little personal touch.
 
 `whoami` is a command that returns the username. Let's edit `beer.sh` to use it:
 
 ```bash
 then
   echo "$(whoami), you're too young to drink!"
 else
   echo "$(whoami), you're old enough, have a beer!"

 ```
 
 .highlight[`$(something)`] allows you to execute a command and substitute the result within another command.
 
 .exercise[
 Test the new additions.

 ---
 
 # Scripting improvements
 
 Let's read the age from the command line arguments.
 
 `bash` automatically populates .highlight[`$0`] with the .highlight[name of the executable],
 and .highlight[`$1`], .highlight[`$2`] and so on with .highlight[arguments].
 
 Let's use `$1` as age if it's defined:
 
 ```bash
 if [ $1 ]
 then
   age=$1
 else
   echo -n "What's your age? "
   read age
 fi
 ```
 
 .exercise[
 Test that `./beer.sh` now automatically gets the age from its first argument, and still asks if no argument is provided.

 # Return values
 
 Whenever a program terminates, it returns a single integer to the shell that called it;
   it's called the .highlight[return value].
 
 By convention:
 * .highlight[0] means "no error".
 * any .highlight[non-zero value] means "some kind of error".
 
 Let's return appropriate values:
 
 ```bash
 then
   echo "$(whoami), you're too young to drink!"
   exit 1
 else
   echo "$(whoami), you're old enough, have a beer!"
   exit 0
 fi
 ```
 
 ---
 
 # Chaining commands
 
 You can chain commands in shell with .highlight[`;`] or .highlight[`&&`].
 
 .highlight[`;`] will execute commands one by one, regardless of errors.
 
 ```
 $ command1; command2

 .highlight[`&&`] will only execute the next command only if the previous one returned 0, i.e. finished without errors.
 ```

 # Environment variables
 
 Your profile files can set various .highlight[environment variables]:
 snippets of data inherited by programs running from shell.
 
 You can see your current environment variables with:
 
 ```

 Some programs rely on environmental variables to change their behavior. Example:
 
 ```bash
 # Will replace the default editor with vim in some commands
 export EDITOR=vim

 # `$PATH` variable
 
 An important variable is `$PATH`.
 
 It's a colon-separated list of directories which are searched when you try to run a program by name.
 
 Notably, the current directory is not in `$PATH`.
 
 If you have created some own scripts/programs and want them to be available by name from anywhere,
   you can put them in a folder (e.g. `~/bin`) and add it to `$PATH`:
 
 ```bash
 export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/bin"

 # Custom shell prompt
 
 The variable `$PS1` contains the format template for your shell prompt.
 
 Throughout this training, you saw the following prompt:
 
 ```
 user@host:~ $ 
 ```
 
 You can customize it! For example:
 ```
 user@host:~ $ export PS1="[\t] \u@\h:\w\\n\\$ "
 
 [16:40:00] user@host:~
 $ 
 ```
 
 Want to control that precisely? Want to add color?
 
 There's [a guide](https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-customize-your-bash-prompt-on-a-linux-vps) for that.

 # Finding files
 
 The `find PATH` command looks through the filesystem at PATH to find files.
 
 One can then filter the output with `grep`, or use `find`'s own keys for sophisticated filtering.
 
 ```
 user@host:~ $ find ~/scits-training -name '*.sh'
 /home/user/scits-training/scripts/boom.sh
 /home/user/scits-training/scripts/beer.sh
 ```

 # `xargs`
 
-The `xargs` command can be used to convert output into arguments of another command.
+The `xargs` command can be used to convert input into arguments of another command.
 
 `xargs COMMAND` will take input and pass it as separate arguments after `COMMAND`:
 
 ```
 user@host:~ $ find ~/scits-training -name '*.sh' | xargs cat
 [contents of both .sh files]
 ```
 
 This is equivalent to 
 ```
 user@host:~ $ cat /home/user/scits-training/scripts/boom.sh \
 /home/user/scits-training/scripts/beer.sh
 ```

 # Public key authentication: theory
 
 It can be useful to use key authentication instead of standard password authentication.
 
 * Far more secure — suitable for internet-facing computers.
 * May be required in cloud environments to set new VMs.
 * Allows passwordless authentication for more convenience.

 It is based on modern cryptography and consists of pairs of keys: .highlight[public],
   which you can give to others, and .highlight[private], that you keep yourself
   (preferably encrypted with a .highlight[passphrase]).
 
 Having the private key allows you to prove that you own the keypair to anyone having
   your public key, without disclosing the private key itself.

 # Public key authentication: workflow
 
 When setting up public key authentication on Linux, here's the workflow:
 
 1. You generate a keypair: private key and public key files.
 
   On Linux/Mac, `ssh-keygen` is used. On Windows, PuTTYgen can be used.
 
 2. You copy the public to the remote system.
 
 3. You connect, instructing SSH to use the private key.
 
   If it's encrypted, you're asked for the passphrase (and may be cached in an SSH agent after that).
 
 ---
 
 # Public key authentication: workflow
 
 On most Linux systems, it is sufficient to have your public key in `~/.ssh/authorized_keys` file.
 
 To copy the keypair to the remote system, `ssh-copy-id` script can be used.
 
 --
 
 Otherwise, you need to create that file/folder yourself, and make sure they have proper permissions.
 
 ```
 user@remote:~$ ls -l ~/.ssh
 total 12
 drwx------  2 user user 4096 Sep 13  2017 .
 drwxr-xr-x 13 user user 4096 Sep  2 21:47 ..
 -rw-------  1 user user 1159 Jan 21  2018 authorized_keys
 user@remote:~$ cat .ssh/authorized_keys
 ssh-rsa AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAA[...]j6aKfAUoXOE= some comment
 ```

 To use a key, one can use `-i PRIVATE_KEY_FILE` flag for `ssh`, or Pageant on Windows.

+# A tiny `vim` tutorial
+
+---
+
+# `vim` modes: command mode
+
+A central concept of `vim` is .highlight[modes].
+
+When you first open a file, if you try to start writing you'll (at best) not
+succeed, and at worst mangle your file and/or dig deeper into `vim`.
+
+This is because `vim` is by default in .highlight[command mode], that uses the entire keyboard
+for various command shortcuts and not actual text input.
+
+You can always get back to command mode by .highlight[pressing `Esc` enough times].
+
+---
+
+# `vim` command mode: useful commands
+
+From command mode, the following commands are very useful (confirm with Enter):
+
+* .highlight[`/something`] searches for "something".
+
+* .highlight[`?something`] does the same, but backwards.
+
+* .highlight[`/`] or .highlight[`n`] goes to the next match.
+
+* .highlight[`?`] or .highlight[`N`] goes to the previous match.
+
+All of the above works in `less` as well.
+
+* .highlight[`:NUMBER`] goes to line number `NUMBER` - very useful when debugging.
+
+  E.g. `:50` goes to 50th line in the file.
+
+---
+
+# `vim` modes: insert mode
+
+After navigating around the file using arrow keys, `PgUp`/`PgDn` or other commands,
+you eventually want to edit the text.
+
+Press .highlight[`i`] to switch to .highlight[insert mode]:
+
+```
+<span style="font-weight:bold">-- INSERT --</span>                                                1,1           Top
+```
+
+Here, you can use your keyboard as usual to edit/input text.
+
+As a reminder, to get back to command mode you should press `Esc`.
+
+---
+
+# Exiting `vim`, eventually
+
+When you're done with editing, go back to command mode, and use one of the commands to exit:
+
+* .highlight[`:q`] will .highlight[q]uit Vim if there are no unsaved changes to the file. It will stop you if there are any.
+
+* .highlight[`:w` w]rites the changes to file.
+
+* .highlight[`:w filename`] writes the changes to another file, `filename`.  
+  It is essentially the "Save As" command.
+
+* .highlight[`:wq`] combines the two: saves current file and exits.
+
+* .highlight[`:q!`] quits forcefully, discarding unsaved changes.
+
+---
+
+# `vim`: minimal survival guide
+
+The absolute minimum knowledge required to use `vim`:
+
+* Use arrow keys to move around in any mode.
+
+* Press `i` to start entering ("inserting") text.
+
+* Press `Esc` before you do anything else.
+
+* `:wq` to write your changes and quit, or
+
+* `:q!` to discard your changes and quit.
+
+Further `vim` help and training is available with `vimtutor` shell command.
+

+
+# Try `vim`
+
+.exercise[
+1. Open the file `ten` with `vim`:
+
+  ```
+  user@remote:~/scits-training/numbers/ $ vim ten
+  ```
+
+2. Add numbers from 6 to 10 to the end, on separate lines
+
+3. Save and exit `vim` (hint: write and quit)
+
+4. Verify what's in the file using `cat`
