linux is linux at the core, specifically when it comes to the command line.

try it like this
Code:
cd /home/gregory/Downloads
Once you get to the downloads directory to see your files there type
Code:
ls -l
the -l is a small L not a number 1

good luck to you.
TroN, you are a Genius to me!
(No kidding)
I've tried 4 two hours to get to my Downloads directory and always the system said = no such file or directory...
And was beginning to think my Slackware were corrupted (or even worse)...
Sorry to be so dumb sometimes (always?)
Many Thanks!

We all were NOOBs at one time so don't be afraid to ask.

Takes time and experience to learn what we know, and none of us "know it all" by any means. Even after ~30 years of using linux I still ask questions.
