OK. a few questions from me.

1) How to remove a file named ".abc"
2) how .??* could be useful for "ls"
3) How and when could "rm" not free disk space
4) "ln" vs "ln -s"
etc...

You will tell me these are more about shell. Right.

I have an idea for having 4 answers for these questions (as you are
going to this kind of test, I suppose).

I would also be very happy to get the full quiz :)
