Synopsis:
Introduces the UNIX environment for the Mac OS X and explains how to set up and configure the Terminal application; how to manage, create, and edit files; and how to navigate the Internet.
About the Author: Dave Taylor is a popular writer, teacher and speaker of business and technology issues. The founder of The Internet Mall and iTrack.com, he's been involved with UNIX and the Internet since 1980, having created the popular Elm Mail System. He's also been a Mac fan since the year it was released. Once a Research Scientist at HP Laboratories and Senior Reviews Editor of SunWorld magazine, Taylor has contributed software to the official 4.4 release of Berkeley Unix (BSD). His programs are found in all versions of Linux and other popular Unix variants. Brian Jepson maintains a keen focus on the sparks that fly where two cutting edges meet. He has published print and online articles that examine the intersection of Open Source and Windows (particularly .NET). Mac OS X is one such intersection, combining a solid Unix core with the pioneering Apple user interface. Brian's prior experience developing applications in Unix and Linux give him an appreciation of the target audience's point of view. His thorough explorations of NeXTSTEP and Mac OS X -- conducted over the last few years -- kept him oriented as he developed this book. Brian is also an O'Reilly editor and co-author of Mac OS X for Unix Geeks.
