Jason,
May I knight you?
I might ask to marry you, but the distance thing.
these sources seem amazing!
complete off line ways to study.
have already grabbed the Linux Command line, and am dancing over to
bookshare for the other suggestion.
Thanks,
Kare

Where do you learn how to use the terminal commands? I’m sure that would be
a good thing to know as you indicate. And people talk about doing it but
never say how it’s done.
I think it's best done by a combination of:
1. A good book on the subject. I don't know of a good OS X-oriented book. For
Linux, which is similar, there is a freely available book by William E. Shotts
Jr., The Linux Command Line. You can download it from the author's Web site in
PDF format:
http://www.linuxcommand.org/tlcl.php
Once you've learned the basics, a book such as Unix Power Tools, 3rd ed.,
published by O'Reilly and available from bookshare.org, is recommended.
2. Manual pages. The "man" command allows you to look up comprehensive
descriptions of many commands. For example, typing "man ls" (without the
quotation marks) will give you a reference manual entry describing the ls
command.
3. Practice. If you use the commands regularly, you'll remember them.
