| | Unix - Encyclopedia Of Stupid |
 | | Unix programs are required to follow naming conventions that are funny (like GNU, which is a type of Unix but stands for "GNU's Not Unix" HA HA GET IT). | | | Some graphical user interfaces have been built for Unix, like Gnome and Litestep, but since you can't do anything with them except run Windows emulators, they are only used by fags and nerds, who always have a Windows machine standing by on which they can play the latest first person shooters. | | | Below is an example of the types of things you have to understand to use Unix. |

| | UNIX and UNIX variant information |
| | UNIX which is not an acronym was developed by some of the members of the Multics team at the bell labs starting in the late 1960's by many of the same people who help created the C programming language. | | | The UNIX today however is the not just the work of a couple of programmers. | | | Because the UNIX operating system is an open operating system you will discover that there are various shells. |

| | Encyclopedia4U - Cat (Unix) - Encyclopedia Article |
| | Among Unix fans, cat(1) is considered an excellent example of user-interface design, because it delivers the file contents without such verbosity as spacing or headers between the files, and because it does not require the files to consist of lines of text, but works with any sort of data. | | | Among Unix haters, cat(1) is considered the canonical example of bad user-interface design, because of its woefully unobvious name. | | | It is far more often used to blast a file to standard output than to concatenate two files. |

| | Once the Unix kernel was coded in C, it would become possible to implement Unix on different computers without having to rewrite the majority of the code. | | | The contributions to the evolution of Unix by researchers at Bell Labs and then by those at the University of California at Berkeley, and other users and programmers around the world who continued the development of Unix, are an important achievement in the development of the process of software creation. | | | Contributing to the value of Unix during its early development, was the fact that the source code was open and available. |

| | UNIX users will feel at home in Darwin, the robust BSD environment that underlies Mac OS X. That environment is accessible at any time from the Terminal application. | | | Beneath the surface of Mac OS X lies an industrial-strength UNIX foundation hard at work to ensure that your computing experience remains free of system crashes and compromised performance. | | | Mac OS X provides a robust set of optimized libraries, making it easy to port your existing UNIX code. |

| | Nick Moffitt's $7 History of Unix |
| | UCB was a licensee of the Unix source code, and they used it extensively for research projects and development. | | | Since Unix was written in C, it was much easier for a student to trace the flow of the code algorithmically. | | | Portability was one of Unix's major strengths, and it would have been foolish to interfere with this by distributing binary-only versions of programs and utilities. |

| | Unix has tried intentionally to keep the operating system extremely simple: at the simplest level which can abstract all the hardware. | | | FLEX-ES that is an IBM 370 emulator that runs on SCO Unix systems. | | | Unix "streaming" allows fast performance, since processes that "stream" can process data quite efficiently until they run out of input, at which point they stop, waiting for input from whatever process is feeding them.

| | Early Unix history and evolution |
| | However, Unix was born in 1969 not 1974, and the account of its development makes a little-known and perhaps instructive story. | | | Pipes appeared in Unix in 1972, well after the PDP-11 version of the system was in operation, at the suggestion (or perhaps insistence) of M. McIlroy, a long-time advocate of the non-hierarchical control flow that characterizes coroutines. | | | Today, the only important Unix program still written in assembler is the assembler itself; virtually all the utility programs are in C, and so are most of the applications programs, although there are sites with many in Fortran, Pascal, and Algol 68 as well. |
