From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I think that can be boiled down to only
cd; echo .*/Maybe throw a
;cd -on the end if the change of directory is unwanted.if you need to preserve
cd -you might be able to do this withpushdandpopdls -A | grep "^\."I had to make a dummy
.dotfileto test because I don't have hidden files in my home.
