| | Brian Kernighan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Brian W. Kernighan (pronounced Ker'-ni-han; the 'g' is silent; born 1942) is a computer scientist who worked at the Bell Labs and contributed to the design of the pioneering AWK and AMPL programming languages. | | | Kernighan's name became widely known through co-authorship of the first book on the C programming language with Dennis Ritchie. | | | Interview with Brian Kernighan – By Aleksey Dolya, for Linux Journal, July 2003. |

| | Brian W. Kernighan |
| | Kernighan is the co-author of several books, including ``The C Programming Language'' and ``The UNIX Programming Environment''. | | | Also in 1969, the system that Brian Kernighan would later name Unix was being developed by Ken Thompson "with some assistance from" Dennis Ritchie. | | | Brian Kernighan is in the Computing Science Research Center at Murray Hill, where he has been in the same office since 1969. |

| | Brian now spoke about this language for mathematical optimization problems, which was written "in about 60K lines of C++," and of the utility of a front-end language and a command-line interface. | | | Moving on to VB, Brian said that it was a "dialect" of Basic where "controls" are analogous to widgets. | | | To me, Brian is a treasure of the computing community: where would we be without KandR, without Kernighan and Pike, without Awk, without Kernighan and Plauger? |

| | by Aho, Alfred V., and Weinberger, Peter J., and Kernighan, Brian W. Originally developed by Alfred Aho, Brian Kernighan, and Peter Weinberger in 1977, AWK is a pattern-matching language for writing short programs to perform common data-manipulation tasks. | | | With the same insight and authority that made their book The Unix programming Environment a classic, Brian Kernighan and Rob Pike have written The Practice of Programming to help make individual programmers more effective and productive. | | | Most of the book is devoted to discussions of individual tools, but throughout run the themes of combining programs and of using programs to build programs--emphasizing how they fit in the environment. |

| | Original pic was written to go with Joseph Ossanna’s original troff(1) by Brian Kernighan, and later re-written by Kernighan with substantial enhancements (apparently as part of the evolution of troff(1) into ditroff(1) to generate device-independent output). | | | The pic language was originally described by Brian Kernighan in Bell Labs Computing Science Technical Report #116 (you can obtain a PostScript copy of the revised version, [1], by sending a mail message to netlib@research.att.com with a body of ‘send 116 from research/cstr’). | | | The document you are reading effectively subsumes Kernighan’s description; it was written to fill in lacunæ in the exposition and integrate in descriptions of the GNU gpic(1) features. |

| | Thompson, Ritchie and Kernighan admit that Unix was a prank |
| | In an announcement that has stunned the computer industry, Ken Thompson, Dennis Ritchie and Brian Kernighan admitted that the Unix operating system and C programming language created by them is an elaborate prank kept alive for over 20 years. | | | In fact, Brian, Dennis and I have never ourselves attempted to write a commercial application in this environment. | | | Brian was also responsible for pitching this lack of I/O as a feature: it allowed us to describe the language as "truly portable". |

| | ditroff(7): classical device independent roff - Linux man page |
| | In 1979, Brian Kernighan rewrote troff to support more devices by creating an intermediate output format for troff that can be fed into postprocessor programs which actually do the printout on the device. | | | It supported only two output devices, the nroff program produced text oriented tty output, while the troff program generated graphical output for exactly one output device, the Wang Graphic Systems CAT typesetter. | | | Today, any existing roff system is based on Kernighan's multi-device troff. |
