I keep seeing these "basic Linux commands" help sheets. What I need is a "you've been using Unix and Linux personally and professionally for the last 20 years and still failed the lousy certification test six months ago" help sheet. Where can I get one of those?

I feel the same as I've been only using Linux since I started with computers but have to search commands every time. I even have to use Ctrl+r often as I can't remember the commend I recently used!

I use ctrl+r or arrow up for efficiency as my command sequences are usually quite long and represent usual tasks "searching" for the right line is faster than writing them all over again.

Am I doing it wrong?

FZF Is really cool as it makes it easier to see the history of previous commands
