This means that for editing you'll have to use a text
editor that works within the terminal window, common options are pico, vim, and emacs,
e.g. pico somefilename or vim somefilename or emacs somefilename,
without an & at the end.
Pico is the simplest but least powerful, it lists command shortcuts at the bottom of the window such as ^x (meaning control-X) to exit, ^o to save (writeout), etc. |

cd git clone csci:csci159/$USER/feedback csci159/feedback |
cd cd csci159/feedback git pull |
This new window looks like the desktop
you'll see if you go to our linux lab, room 102 in building 315
Feel free to browse and experiment, perhaps try out the gedit editor
as an alternative to pico, e.g. cd cd csci159 cd lab1 gedit lab1a.cpp |
