Basic terminal use is very handy.
The best button is <tab> (the tab key)
Begin typing a command and press TAB and it will offer you choices, if it does not, then press TAB again and it will give a list.
This also works with addresses and saves typos.
So to edit a file, you may use gedit, so type
ged<tab>
and it says $gedit
Now after gedit begin typing an address /hom<tab>
and it will say $gedit /home/
now press t<tab>
and it says $gedit /home/tawan/
A short way to type /home/tawan/ is ~/
type gedit ~/<tab> and it will say $gedit /home/tawan/
