Ik, so you are updated to precise pangolin.

Thank You for help.
I did install Ocelot and during install
the software asked: Do You like Pangolin
so from the beginning I was using Pangolin.
Is this a problem?
How are the upgrades running in Linux?
I expected: Every 6 months I have to update:
Hardy..Ocelot..Pangolin...Quantal.. or is this wrong?

Cat will dump everything to your screen at once. Fine for small files,
but of little use for large ones. Less only displays one screen or
specified nber of lines at a time, and let's you move backward and
forward in a file easily. Type "man less" to see more details of the
less command.

So "cat" does show the contence of a file? Isnt it?

No, but you could start it that way I think...

I did it "cat /etc/issuecat" and it said: I am still using Pangolin.

Looks right. I usually work from email. I'd have to check. You can
always get there from your yahoo groups Page.

I am just asking.Because very often I am or we are travelling around so
maybe I am visiting my neighbor for asking something and so there I can
read the posts.
Outside my home.

It is just a matter of preference. In some cases, the terminal is more
flexible than the gui...

Is this right:The advance of the terminal is, You can see a list of
mistakes?
