WHAT(1) BSD General Commands Manual WHAT(1)NAME
what -- show what versions of object modules were used to construct a file
SYNOPSIS
what name ...
DESCRIPTION
what reads each file name and searches for sequences of the form ``@(#)'', as inserted by the source code control system. It prints the
remainder of the string following this marker, up to a null character, newline, double quote, or ``> character.''
BUGS
As BSD is not licensed to distribute SCCS. This is a rewrite of the what command which is part of SCCS; it may not behave in exactly the
same manner as that command does.
HISTORY
The what command appeared in 4.0BSD.

LAST(1) BSD General Commands Manual LAST(1)NAME
last -- indicate last logins of users and ttys
SYNOPSIS
last [-n] [-h host] [-t tty] [user ...]
DESCRIPTION
Last will list the sessions of specified users, ttys, and hosts, in reverse time order. Each line of output contains the user name, the tty
from which the session was conducted, any hostname, the start and stop times for the session, and the duration of the session. If the ses-
sion is still continuing or was cut short by a crash or shutdown, last will so indicate.
-n Limits the report to n lines.
-h host Host names may be names or internet numbers.
-t tty Specify the tty. Tty names may be given fully or abbreviated, for example, ``last -t 03'' is equivalent to ``last -t tty03''.
If multiple arguments are given, the information which applies to any of the arguments is printed, e.g., ``last root -t console'' would list
all of ``root's'' sessions as well as all sessions on the console terminal. If no users, hostnames or terminals are specified, last prints a
record of all logins and logouts.
The pseudo-user reboot logs in at reboots of the system, thus ``last reboot'' will give an indication of mean time between reboot.
If last is interrupted, it indicates to what date the search has progressed. If interrupted with a quit signal last indicates how far the
search has progressed and then continues.

What is your favorite Linux distro?
and possibly why?
Personally, I have Fedora 3 on my computer. I have used Ubuntu and Slackware, too. But I think I liked Ubuntu more, maybe because of its speed and easy installation of packages. (192 Replies)
I was looking through the topics and I wasn't sure if this was the best place to post this question:
