Basics-of-command-line-navigation.md

+This is a minimal introduction in command line navigation under Windows, to allow you to complete the GEPARD installation. (Under Linux command line navigation works in a similar way, with the exception of using shlash `/` instead of backshlash `\` as a connector and the command `ls` instead of `dir` to list the contents of a folder.)

+
+`cd ..` navigates to the parent directory. The two fullstops indicate one level "up" and can be combined to move through more than one levels:
