Considering that I am new at the command line, how do I, or can I access
the web site tutorial from there? I suspect that I can not. If I can,
please give explicit instructions. I am making a good faith effort to
learn the comand line, and would appreciate the extra help.
IMO, this is not the best way to learn the command line I/F. It's
not the way I use it, and I do nearly everything command-line.
If you are using GNOME, then on your Desktop right-click, and
select "Open Terminal". You'll get window with a command-line
interface in it.
I hear that this method is going away. If you prefer, you can
start one another way.
Left-click on the hat in the lower-left corner, and select
Run Application...
When the dialogue box pops up, enter this
xterm -geometry 80x25 -fg black -bg antiquewhite
You may omit the foreground and background colors, those
are just the ones I happen to prefer.
You'll get a window with a CLI. Put your mouse inside the window,
and use CONTROL-RIGHT_CLICK and select whatever font size
you like. CONTROL-LEFT_CLICK brings up another menu you can
use.
In the meantime, there's no need to give up window management
just because you are using a CLI.

I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
