More UNIX commands

Well, there is a plethora of programs available for your use on the sparcs. I give you a listing of quite a few here, along with how to invoke them.
Note: these are currently in no particular order, I just add items as I think of them... Also, I've added a "&" to the end of commands that start up X/graphical applications that don't use the shell and are therefore more useful when run in the background. Commands that I give without the "&" are usually ones that aren't very happy running in the background (that is they depend on the tty for input).

Parameters where you need to fill in the appropriate address or filename will be specified as <filename> or <address>. Optional parameters will be surrounded by brackets, like if a filename is an optional argument, I will specify it like so: [<filename>] or if there is an option verbose flag (-v) that you might want to use, i'll specify it like so: [-v]. this convention is a fairly common one. I don't list all the command line options for these programs, however. For full descriptions of these programs, please consult their man pages.
