Does anyone have a good suggestion for a book that helps a linux/unix noob learn about the command line?   I've been strictly GUI for years and am starting to realize that in order to be proficient in linux I need to understand how to use the command line.

The Linux Cookbook (V.2 if you can find it) is great.

If you really want to get into the geek spirit, "Just for Fun", the pseudo-autobiography of Linus Torvalds is also a great read.

Rute PDF is another suggestion,
general reference, scripting,etc.

'Linux Pocket Guide' by Daniel J Barrett (ISBN: 0596006284) is a good CLI reference.
