(I strongly suggest to use copy->paste!!! There are dots and spaces that are easy to miss when typing the commands by hand.)

By default, the "prompt" (beginning of a command line) on Compute Canada clusters looks like this:
node n%
You first have the name of the login node, followed by the number of you command (which increases by 1 with each command you type), followed by the sign(!) '%'.
For example on narval1 (one of the login nodes on Narval) you might get:
narval1 1%
The '%' here is not a 'percent of setup done' but just a sign to mark the end of the prompt!

Then I suggest you create a link to our common '.group_profile'.
This will give you some basic aliases I find quite useful. Have I suggest you have a look at them if you liketo see which ones are available.
I will keep adding aliases and exports to this file.
