[TriLUG] Intro to Command Line Class

[David Both via TriLUG]

I will be teaching tomorrow night. There are still seats available if 
anyone would like to attend. It is open to all genders.

I wrote the course and I have licensed the course content under a 
Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License so you 
can use it as the basis for your courses if you like.

Yes, it is a lot of ground to cover, but the notes for each slide in the 
handouts provide the information needed to complete most of the 
activities without an instructor. And we will only be going into some 
things at a very superficial level. I am hoping to put together a longer 
course, but considering that most of the target audience, regardless of 
gender, have day jobs, a couple hours a week at night is about all most 
can take away from other necessary activities and family time.
