Synopsis

Mac OS X is designed to bring usability and stability to a new level. This pocket reference introduces users to Mac, Windows, and Unix and to the fundamental concepts of Mac OS X. It shows how to use the Finder and the Dock, as well as how to configure your system using the System Preferences. Because Mac OS X is Unix-based, the book shows you how to issue basic Unix commands using the Terminal application. Topics covered in the book include: how to configure your Mac OS X system; how to use the Finder and the Dock; an overview of keyboard shortcuts for use with the GUI and the Terminal; and how to create special characters and symbols.
