When
working at the command line, you may not ever know that both names exist. That??™s why you always
want to verify any data you use.
Get the data in written form whenever possible. Obtaining it in a form that you can cut and paste
to the command line is even better. Not only does such a practice save you typing time, but doing
so makes it considerably more difficult to make a mistake. Typos are understandably a significant
source of problems at the command line. Anything you can do to verify data before you complete
a command is a plus. Copying and pasting are essential parts of working at the command line.
TIP
To copy any text in a GUI window, highlight the text and then press Ctrl+C. To paste the text
from the clipboard into the command line window, right-click the command line window and
choose Paste from the context menu. It??™s also possible to move information in the other direction.
In this case, right-click the command line window and choose Mark from the context menu.
Highlight the text you want to copy and then press Enter. To paste the text into any GUI window,
place the cursor at the insertion point and press Ctrl+V.
