translate to linux command

[grimlockprime]

im taking a computer class and we are given a question and told to write it out in a linux command. i have never used linux and am just not getting what the command would be . the question is a file named weapon.pcx in the subdirectory bobafet in the subdirectory players in the sub directory baseq in the directory quake2 on the /media/cdrom drive. what would the Linux command look like ? i came up with" /media/cdrom drive/quake2/baseq/players/bobafet/weapon.pcx" is that right ?

What's the command supposed to do? Open it, run it, etc...?

To run it, you'd type: /media/cdrom/quake2/baseq/players/bobafet/weapon.pcx.. if you were to view its contents, you could cat /media/cdrom/quake2/baseq/players/bobafet/weapon.pcx
