Product Description

Product Description
This book provides a handy quick reference to the commonly-used Linux commands and options. Readers can find out how to use editors and graphical interfaces, and sections covering e-mail and common GNU tools and programs are provided. Linux is a network operating system and most Linux users are also their own system administrators. With this in mind, the text includes common networking and administration commands. Some of the more basic and shorter shell programming scripts are presented. The reader also finds command options and steps for using features, such as piping and I/O redirection. Readers can find commands for creating HTML more quickly and efficiently under Linux, and Internet connectivity is stressed.

1.0 out of 5 stars Quick and Dumb, 22 Jul 1998
By A Customer
All very sketchy and definitely not something that will take you all the way through any part of the Linux system. Even as a new user, I was finding holes in the instructions (weakest areas: setting up e-mail, online connections)and the author's obvious biases (one page on Emacs, but six or seven on vi). It has some useful references for the well-known commands, but even if that's all you want, you'd be better off buying a more complete reference work.
