Ans: In order to know the file type of a particular file use the [file] command like below:
$> file file.txt
file.txt: ASCII text
If you want to know the technical MIME type of the file, use “-i” switch.
$>file -i file.txt
file.txt: text/plain; char set=us-ascii
If the file is zipped, following will be the result
$> file –i file.zip
file.zip: application/x-zip

  Ans: Use “-t” switch with the inbuilt [unzip] command
$> unzip –t file.zip

 Ans: Use inbuilt [unzip] command in Linux.
$> unzip –j file.zip

 Ans: Use inbuilt [zip] command in Linux

   Ans: Open the file in VI editor. Go to VI command mode by pressing [Escape] and then [:]. Then type [set list]. This will show you all the non-printable characters, e.g. Ctrl-M characters (^M) etc., in the file.

 Ans: This can be done in two steps. The first step is to remove the n-th line. And the second step is to insert a new line in n-th line position. Here we go.
Step 1: remove the n-th line
$>Sed -i'' '10 d' file.txt       # d stands for delete
Step 2: insert a new line at n-th line position
$>Sed -i'' '10 i This is the new line' file.txt     # i stands for insert

Ans: We know we can do it by [cut]. Like below command extracts the first field from the output of [WC –c] command $>WC -c file.txt | cut -d' ' -f1 109 But I want to introduce one more command to do this here. That is by usi...  

Ans: Use the [rev] command.
      $> echo "Unix" | rev
       Xinu

Ans: Assuming the words in the line are separated by space, we can use the [cut] command. [cut] is a very powerful and useful command and it's real easy. All you have to do to get the n-th word from the line is issue the following command:
Cut –f<n> -d' '
'-d' switch tells [cut] about what is the delimiter (or separator) in the file, which is space ' ' in this case. If the separator was comma, we could have written -d',' then. So, suppose I want find the 4th word from the below string: “A quick brown fox jumped over the lazy cat”, we will do something like this:
$> echo “A quick brown fox jumped over the lazy cat” | cut –f4 –d' '
And it will print “fox”
