Here's a random list of useful linux commands in no particular order:


grep (or ack-grep)
find
xargs
chown/chmod (-R to recur down a directory tree)
rsync
tail -f, less (F to follow a file)
wget, curl
apache benchmarking: ab
performance / process monitoring: ps, dstat, uptime, top, iftop, iptraf, iostat
learn shell scripting


Another command I often use (aliased) to check memory usage is

ps -eo rss,pid,comm,args | sort -n


I'm not sure what you mean exactly by piping, but subprocess.call allows you to pipe shell commands into each other. I'd also recommend fabric for deploying python projects.
