Typing

Tab completion and command history make life on the shell a lot easier. Use both as much as possible. Some other useful features of the bash shell:

Shortcuts

CTRL-L Clears the screen

CTRL-A Moves the cursor to the start of the line.

CTRL-E Moves the cursor to the end of the line.

Copy-paste

Selecting a piece of text in the console with the left mouse button copies it to the clipboard. (i.e. the same as in a Windows program, but without pressing CTRL-V).

The contents of the clipboard can be copied to the console by pressing the mouse wheel (press the left+right buttons, or the middle button if you don't have a wheel).
