ls = list files and folders in the current directory
cd = change directory
pwd = tells you which directory you are in
nano = a command line text editor, similar to notepad

editing your website

using the commands above we can update our homepage:

type ls to see what files and folders are in your home directory
type cd ~/public_html to get to your web site's directory
type nano index.html to open your homepage in nano.

edit the file as you like. when done press ctrl + x to quit. you'll be asked if you want to save, press y to confirm. (or n to quit without saving) if it asks you for a filename, press enter to confirm.
