wuts the command that allows u to use 2 commands on one line?
if you dont mind, english please! Read the rules of the board.

you can run multiple commands on a single line by separating the commands by a semi colon.

example:

echo $PWD ; ls -a

You can also run multiple commands on a single line via a pipe. The pipe takes the output of one command and "pipes" it as input to another command.

example:

ps -ef | grep ORA
