Picked a tiny directory here just to show your inquiry to HM worked, Britta. ;^)

-bash-2.05b$ cd public_html/anb
-bash-2.05b$ tree -d .

<< cd >> change directory command

Just diddling through some of the command exercises here and copying while I go.  I think I covered all requested in this section of the assignment in these globs. ;^)

-bash-2.05b$ cd public_html

Note: When using the cd ../.. command while inside the images file, the first two dots .. take me back to catartis. The slash and second two dots added after it ../.. take me up one more level to public_html.

-bash-2.05b$

<< cat >> command to read a file

I did not copy out the entire .js file I checked, but it displayed as expected. The file generated by the << cat >> command did not fly by for me, but stayed available, scrollable and readable.

-bash-2.05b$ cd public_html
-bash-2.05b$ cd watervalleybb
-bash-2.05b$ cat script_wv103.js

<< more > > command to read a file in screen sized chunks

A percentage of remaining, unseen file will be displayed at the end.  Press the spacebar to move down the page.  For the size file I was using [appx. 50 lines] I found this more tedious than << cat >>.

-bash-2.05b$ more script_wv103.js

<< less >> command

Similar to << more >> but you must manually escape the file using the Q input.

  -bash-2.05b$ less script_wv103.js

<< passwd >> command

This is the command to change your password.  As I do not care to do that at the moment, I will simply make note for future reference.
