Command line - scripts - it's all greek to me.
Well, it was but I'm getting more familiar with the basics and how the OS actually does things.
With that in mind ( and I'm keen to learn ! ) can anyone recommend Books or Websites that will help users new to the whole Linux experience.
Cheers

I'm pretty surprised that no one has mentioned this link:
http://www.goosee.com/linux/ch03/index.html
(were I smarter, I would actually make that a link)
Edit: I see that the forum made it a link automagically.
...which is Barry's own personal, in-depth rundown of some important fundamental Linux concepts. This link can be found on the Puppy home page. (I'll bet very few of us ever scroll down that far on the main page anymore...)
Anyway, I found it to be a *very* useful refresher on some of the most important basic concepts of linux.

PS. for more fun, change the "3" in the URL to another number, to find other chapters! It's fun for the whole family!
