Chill.
Assuming you are wrokign from a desktop (gui) you can get a command line 
two ways.
look under the pop up menus (ustally the left most item on the bottom task 
bar)
under one of the system item you will find treminal start it and you have 
acommand line.
Or do Ctrl+Alt+F1 and you can switch to a console screen where you can log 
in (same user name and password)
And you again have a command line.
As for which programs you require help with you will have to ask specific 
questions.
Have a look at fedoranews.org and the linux ducumentation project for more 
help (might be ldp.org but it has slipped my mind for the moment).
