### Command: sl (steam locomotive)
|
||||
You probably know the 'ls' command and use it a lot to see the contents of folders. However, there are times when you might spell it 'sl', so how do we have some fun instead of seeing "command not found"?
|
||||
You might be aware of command ‘ls‘ the list command and use it frequently to view the contents of a folder but because of miss-typing sometimes you would result in ‘sl‘, how about getting a little fun in terminal and not “command not found“.

No! No!! it is not as much complex as it seems. You would be familiar with telnet. Telnet is a text-oriented bidirectional network protocol over network. Here is nothing to be installed. What you should have is a Linux box and a working Internet.
