This episode covers how to see what is inside a file and how to copy files from one folder to another and how to move files from one folder to another

The podcast mentions the following commands that are typed in at a command prompt inside a terminal. They are here just for ease of reference.

mkdir foldername

echo "Hello World" > filename

cat filename

file filename

cp  filename newfilename

mv filename  ../folder  (moves the filename to a different folder from its parent)
