[Leaplist] 10 good linux habbits to adopt

This sort of thing should be equally applicable to Linux, or AIX, or 
*BSD, or pretty much any other *ix. But a lot of the stuff seemed a bit 
on the nit-picking side, and overly concerned with execution efficiency. 
Unless you're running *ix on a MITS Altair or your TV remote control, 
you'll never notice the difference. And I doubt I would be typing any of 
those combined commands in directly - if I'm doing it once I'll do it 
one command at a time, and if I'm doing it a lot I'll probably write a 
shell script.

So IMHO it's not bad stuff, just kind of irrelevant. You may find a gem 
or two that works for your command line working style, or maybe not. Or 
maybe you do most of your work using GUI tools  ...
