Basically, SunOS is unix, so the standard Unix stuff will do the trick. dir – ls type – cat delete – rm cd – cd (use pwd to find out where you are currently) On line help is normally available (if it was loaded onto the disk) as man Syntax is 'man command' Where command is any program name… so to find out more about ls, you would type 'man ls'. Any Unix book will give you the commands you need, and the cheapest way is to find the Sun Manuals or pick up one of those pocket ref guides for Unix. Have fun!
