Hi. I'm new to Linux. I have many problems about linux commands.
What is the significance of "who" command.

Who - Linux Commands

Just google commands you have issues with. They aren't worth making a post over.

[Xav]

That's what I was thinking. Some people obviously don't know how to use Google.

Lol.

Well, it's kind of difficult... especially as there's a plain text box in the middle of the screen and a big button next to it that says "Google Search". Confusing.

More humor.

I believe who will find someone's ip address information, or details about a specific user. Commands like these are used very frequently in irc.

Generally linux has built in documentation for its commands. Type "man who" at your prompt (press enter) and it will bring up the manual on the who command.

I have read that from site which Xav replied.man is command to see manual of any mention command. Isn't it?

man <command>

When entered into the bash terminal of linux, this will give you the built in documentation (help) for that command.
