Running Lion from the Command Line

One of the things that I try to do in this book is spare you from typing commands when possible. But the fact remains that you can do just about everything in this book — and much more —with commands in a Unix shell, Terminal, which you can find in /Applications/Utilities.

Apple offers a 300-page Command-Line Administration PDF reference here:

If you know your way around a Unix shell, you'll find it all in Apple's PDF.
