moving to unix
good advice from Porter I would say
I would also add that in my view Unix and Linux are virtually the same - there *are* differences but the std commands for listing dirs, viewing files, copying, moving, deleting etc are all the same.
If you are moving from windows try to get used to using the command line in Unix/Linux - it is where you will spend lots of your time and it also gives you the ability to do things if you do not have a graphical interface available.

gozerbot
GOZERBOT(1) gozerbot manual GOZERBOT(1)
NAME
gozerbot - an IRC and Jabber bot written in Python
SYNOPSIS
gozerbot-start [data directory]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the gozerbot program.
This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. Instead, it
has documentation in text format; see below.
gozerbot is an IRC and Jabber bot written in Python.
USAGE
A template configuration file ~/.gozerbot/gozerdata/config will be created when running gozerbot-start for the first time, or can be cre-
ated in some other directory by running gozerbot-start [data directory]. Once at least one valid IRC server or Jabber service for gozerbot
to connect to has been specified in that file, running gozerbot-start [data directory] again will start gozerbot.
To perform further configuration, message your gozerbot on the IRC server or Jabber service to which it has connected, using the name spec-
ified in the configuration file (by default, gozerbot). To summon gozerbot to an IRC channel, you will need to /msg gozerbot join #chan-
nel. Other useful commands are:
!perms
See what permissions you have
!available
See what plugins are available
!commands
See what commands are available
!help [command]
Obtain usage information for a command
SEE ALSO
The program is documented fully in the text documentation.
