		In the same way we can say NeXT is not unix, Irix is not unix, but Solaris, SunOS, HP-UX, and AIX are all unixes,, and Linux is unix, Gnu's Not Unix is unix too.) most unixers will have a hard time to articulate clearly what is unix.
		You are probably right that GNU Darwin is not an official GNU project.

	Hache: Manifeste GNU (The GNU Manifesto)
		GNU, qui est l'acronyme de GNU's Not Unix [GNU n'est pas Unix], est le nom du système logiciel complet compatible Unix que j'écris pour pouvoir le donner gratuitement à quiconque en aurait l'usage.
		GNU sera capable d'exécuter des programmes Unix, mais ne sera pas identique à Unix.
		GNU est initialement destiné aux ordinateurs de la série 68000/16000 avec mémoire virtuelle, parce que ce sont les ordinateurs sur lesquels il est le plus facile de le faire fonctionner.

	GNU - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The GNU project was announced publicly on September 27, 1983, on the net.unix-wizards and net.usoft newsgroups.
		In the GNU Manifesto, Stallman had mentioned that "an initial kernel exists but many more features are needed to emulate Unix." He was referring to TRIX, a remote procedure call kernel developed at MIT, whose authors had decided to distribute for free, and was compatible with Version 7 Unix.
		This license is now used by most GNU programs, as well as a large number of free software programs that are not part of the GNU project; it is one of the most commonly-used free software licenses in the world.

	The GNU Manifesto
		GNU, which stands for Gnu's Not Unix, is the name for the complete Unix-compatible software system which I am writing so that I can give it away free to everyone who can use it.(1) Several other volunteers are helping me. Contributions of time, money, programs and equipment are greatly needed.
		GNU will be able to run Unix programs, but will not be identical to Unix.
		GNU is aimed initially at machines in the 68000/16000 class with virtual memory, because they are the easiest machines to make it run on.

		It might not matter for indent, but any program that needs to locate its installed files at runtime would fail, because when your RPM is finally installed on a user's system, the files aren't under the build root anymore -- that's just a temporary directory on your build system.
		Summary: GNU indent Name: indent Version: 2.2.6 Release: 1 Source0: %{name}-%{version}.tar.gz License: GPL Group: Development/Tools Þscription The GNU indent program reformats C code to any of a variety of formatting standards, or you can define your own.

	GNU/Linux naming controversy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Moreover, both the name "GNU" and the name "Linux" are intentionally related to the name "Unix", and Unix has always conceptually included the C library and userland tools as well as the kernel.
		The history of Linux is closely tied to that of GNU, which began the development of a complete Unix-like operating system composed entirely of free software in January 1984.
		The GNU Project was not, is not, a project to develop specific software packages.

	Nm (Unix) - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
		As with other parts of the GNU toolchain, a given nm binary is compiled only for a specific computer architecture and binary format, and so security specialists who use nm to examine suspect binary files typically keep a number of "foreign target" nm binaries prebuilt.
		The GNU project ships a highly capable nm program as part of the GNU Binutils package.
		nm is used as an aid for debugging, to help resolve problems arising from name conflicts and C++ name mangling, and to validate other parts of the toolchain.

	Encyclopedia article on GNU [EncycloZine]
		The GNU project was announced to the public on September 27, 1983, on the net.unix-wizards and net.usoft newsgroups.
		The GNU system is often combined with the kernel Linux, which is not part of the GNU project, to form a completely functional operating system.
		In the GNU Manifesto, Stallman had mentioned that "an initial kernel exists but many more features are needed to emulate Unix." He was referring to TRIX, a remote procedure call kernel developed at MIT, whose authors had decided to distribute for free, and was compatible with UNIX version 7.

	Debian -- Debian GNU/Hurd --- Installation
		GNU is similar in nature to any Unix-like system: after logging in, the user is presented with a shell and the familiar Unix VFS (virtual filesystem).
		If GNU Mach does not recognize your network card or you use a modem, the only way to upgrade will be to download the packages and then transfer them to the GNU system.
		Also, as GNU Mach does not support loadable kernel modules, many of the drivers are compiled into the default kernel.

	The GNU C Library - Introduction
		The GNU C library defines some of the facilities required by the SVID that are not also required by the ANSI or POSIX standards, for compatibility with System V Unix and other Unix systems (such as SunOS) which include these facilities.
		The GNU C library, described in this document, defines all of the library functions that are specified by the ANSI C standard, as well as additional features specific to POSIX and other derivatives of the Unix operating system, and extensions specific to the GNU system.
		The GNU C library header files have been written in such a way that it doesn't matter if a header file is accidentally included more than once; including a header file a second time has no effect.

	Developing software with GNU
		Technically, Unix and GNU have many similarities, and it is very easy to port software from Unix to GNU or use GNU software on Unix systems.
		GNU Autoconf is part of the GNU build system and we first introduce in in section The GNU build system.
		The GNU build system in general requires that all the object files that build a specific library be under the same directory.

		Moreover, Bill Claybrook was not able to determine if the 80-lines of code might have been copied from Unix to Linux or from Linux to Unix-- nor does he report the source or author of these 80-lines of possibly purloined code.
		Another proviso is that Bill Claybrook found 80 lines of code common to both the Unix and Linux code the SCO-Caldera people showed.
		SCO's code-view show also failed to refute that which the prominent and respected members of the Linux kernel and GNU/Linux communities reject.

	The GNU Operating System
		The GNU Project was launched in 1984 to develop a complete UNIX like operating system which is free software: the GNU system (GNU is a recursive acronym for “GNU's Not UNIX”; it is pronounced guh-noo, like canoe).

		GNU stands for GNU's not Unix, which makes the term a recursive acronym (an acronym in which one of the letters stands for the acronym itself).
		GNU is a Unix-like operating system that comes with source code that can be copied, modified, and redistributed.
		The GNU project was started in 1983 by Richard Stallman and others, who formed the Free Software Foundation.

	Linux
		The GNU project was begun in 1983 to develop a complete Unix-like operating system — compilers, application programs, development utilities and so on — composed entirely of free software.
		By 1991, when the first version of the Linux kernel was written, the GNU project had produced nearly all of the components of this system — except the kernel.
		The history of Linux is closely tied to that of the GNU project, a prominent free-software project led by Richard Stallman.
	www.wikiverse.org /linux (298 words)

	Linux
		Because these facilities (without which the system would not resemble Unix from a user perspective) stem from a longstanding free operating-system project that pre-dates the Linux kernel itself, Stallman of GNU asks users to refer to the entire system as GNU/Linux.
		On the other hand, both the name GNU and the name Linux are intentionally parallel to the name Unix, and Unix has always referred to the C library and userland tools as well as the kernel.
		We made a list of the programs needed to make a complete free system, and we systematically found, wrote, or found people to write everything on the list.

	Unix-like - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Other parties frequently treat "Unix" as a generic noun or descriptor for operating systems that are not necessarily covered by the "UNIX" trademark, in much the same way that "Band-Aid" is used in reference to any bandage or "Xerox" to any photocopier.
		Most but not all commercial Unix systems fall into this category, as do the BSD systems, descendants of work done at the University of California at Berkeley in the late 1970s and early 1980s.
		Their guidelines require "UNIX" to be presented in uppercase or otherwise distinguished from the surrounding text, strongly encourage using it as a branding adjective for a generic word such as "system", and discourage its use in hyphenated phrases.
