About this product
Product Information
Mac users are comfortable with the easy-to-use elegance of the Aqua user interface, but when confronted with Mac OS X's Unix-style command line, they find themselves at a loss. Our popular book, Learning Unix for Mac OS X Tiger, provides the curious with a user-friendly tour of the Unix world concealed beneath the surface of their Macs. Thoroughly revised and updated to cover Tiger, the latest version of Mac OS X, this new edition tells readers how to use the Terminal application, become functional with the command interface, explore hundreds of Unix applications that come with the Mac, and most importantly, how to take advantage of both the Mac and Unix interfaces. The book also comes with a handy quick reference card for the most useful Unix commands.
