Using chsh I can change my login shell. However, how do I change my non-login shell? I am using Linux Mint with Cinnamon desktop.

I found the answer on AskUbuntu:
Cinnamon uses gnome-terminal and one must edit their profile to run any other shell than the default (bash).

I'm using Microsoft, the instructor is teaching on his Mac. On Git Hub he copied the link and put it on "TERMINAL" I don't understand what it was, so I couldn't find that one to paste my link.
The terminal is the mac equivalent to the command prompt on windows, if you want to access it just type cmd in your start menu.

I'm writing a little bash script.
As written in the reference:
http://linuxcommand.org/man_pages/ls1.html
ls -A
Should not list "./" and "../" directories.
But... on my system (centOS) is still listing it.
Is there some option "always on" I should be take care of before running this script?

I'm logged in as root and i do:
su killyz && whoami
the user will switch but the whoami won't print until i Ctrl+D, why is that?
su opens a new shell and won't exit until that shell is closed, via Ctrl-D or some other method.

When say using sudo, it requires a password. But at the instance, I decide that I do not actually want to take the command (or forget the password and want to try again later). What should I do other than close the terminal externally?
Type Control-c to kill the command.
