+# handbook
+once you boot in, you wanna see `help`
+
+your motd lies in `/etc/motd` and the profile script in `/etc/profile`
+
+## working with files
+`cat`, `ls`, `rm`, `mkdir`, whatever, work as you'd expect them to
+
+`ed` is your only text editor\
+it's cooler than gnu ed. type `h` to see help\
+you also get some revo-specific commands, for free!\
+- `x` to execute and show the result
+- `!` to execute
+- `v` to check whether a file is valid
+- `o` to get an outline
