Teaching the how and why of working in the Linux environment, this book guides the readers through Linux utilities for process, file, storage, and I/O management. It is combined with a systematic coverage of Linux software development tools, Bash and TC shell programming, a glossary, and a Linux installation appendix for Caldera and Mandrake.
Linux: The Textbook is the first true textbook to teach the how and why of working in the Linux environment. Assuming no previous Linux experience, the book tours the Linux user interface to provide insight into the inner workings of the system as well as important Linux concepts. Readers are guided through Linux utilities for process, file, storage, and I/O management, thereby quickly learning to navigate the user interface while broadening their understanding of important operating system principles. This unique presentation—combined with a thorough and systematic coverage of Linux software development tools, Bash and TC shell programming, a glossary, a Linux installation appendix for Caldera, Mandrake, and Red Hat Linux, and a quick-reference appendix on commonly used shell commands and utilities—benefits the beginning student as well as the skilled Linux user.
