Hi Everyone,
My name is Darrel and I live in the US.
I have dabbled in programming, (coding) on and off my whole life. I currently
write in html, PHP, MySQL and the rest of the web stuff.
I know almost nothing about Linux, other than I prefer it as a web server and
this is mostly how I have interacted with it.
A few years ago I needed to get a couple of measuring devices that had USB
connections to talk to me and I did, with the help of this list and a Raspberry
pi.
So that was the last time I used Linux at the command line level.
So now I would like to get back into it. I want to learn a little python and
think the PI is a good place to play.
Today I rewrote an SD card and with the help of this list I have my PI3B
talking with orca both in the shell and the GUI.
Now, with this background stuff out of the way I have a couple of questions.
Here are the first two.
As a totally blind user who is fluent with windows, and Mac OS and have both,
is the PI the best place to try python. I would like to because it is pure
Linux.
Question 2, When I do anything in terminal like listing the directory, I hear
the results immediately but I can not seam to go back and read the output
again. Is there a way to do this?
Thank You,
Darrel
