I agree that Unix is more popular and that it should probaly be Unix, however the last para (or so) says that UNIX is the ingrained name, so I'm not sure whether to leave or revert...
So, it seems to me that the formal spelling is UNIX, but there sure is a lot of use of the alternative Unix as well when you do an Amazon search for books with UNIX in the title, or just sample the newsgroups by doing a Google.com search for UNIX.
"UNIX" is a registered trademark of The Open Group, however, since it is a name and not an acronym, "Unix" has been adopted in this dictionary except where a larger name includes it in upper case.

It doesn't take too long to describe the family tree of the various Unix shells, and compare a few features.

Summarizing how pipes found their way into Unix, Vyssotsky notes that Thompson put them in, but "it was McIlroy who said, `look you ought to do it.' Pipes, like most things in Unix were not a radically new idea."(38) He describes how similar ideas had appeared in other languages like SIMULA as early as 1967.
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.

 Talk and Ytalk -- communications programs   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
Typically a talk session is initiated with a command like this: talk sconnery@sdcc13.ucsd.edu If your correspondent is logged on and is accepting "talk" invitations, s/he will see a message that looks like Message from Talk_Daemon@sdcc13 at 12:37...
talk: respond with: talk czjones@sdcc13.ucsd.edu Your correspondent then responds with a similar talk command typed at the Unix prompt: talk czjones@sdcc13.ucsd.edu Once both sides have connected, the screen is split into two parts so both parties can see what they type.
If the ability to receieve talk requests is not enabled with this command, users trying to talk-request you will receive a message saying that you are not accepting talk requests.

 A Unix Command Summary
Most of these commands are applicable to any unix machine, however, some may be machine and/or operating system specific (these are marked appropriately).
A Unix shell is an interactive command interpreter which is what accepts the commands that you type, and runs the appropriate program to process them.
There are a number of popular shells in unix systems, including the "C" shell variants (csh, tcsh), korn shell variants (ksh, zsh) and bourne shell variants (sh, bash).

I have given brief thought to allowing at least the output of UNIX talk users to be transmitted to all connected YTalk users, but I have not written any code to do so.
Note that even though UNIX talk cannot handle multiple connec- tions, it is still possible for YTalk to handle multiple UNIX "talk" connections.
The best way to understand the limitations that UNIX "talk" places on YTalk is to test various connections between the two and see how things work.

 Datametrics--The UNIX Industry: A Brief History
So they started with UNIX as their so-called robust operating system they were going to push, and then of course the IBM PC came out and they latched onto DOS, pushing UNIX to the background.
UNIX is a set of four letters that is a trademark currently owned by X/Open company in the UK.
It was in 1990 that UNIX International, which was a subsidiary of ATandT, released SVR4 which is still the standard UNIX version that's out there now, so that's been around quite a while and everyone is just sort of tweaking and modifying and revising that for their hardware.

If the talk program was incompatible with netcruser's computer, you may have been able to establish a connection using ytalk, public domain program that attempts to overcome some of these differences.
Programs like talk and ytalk display messages on your screen, but they usually do not effect files you are editing.

These keys are now opposite from the way they were in 0.16; while this will probably be confusing at first, the rationale is that the key combi- nations with escape are harder to type and should therefore be used to scroll one's own screen, since one needs to do that much less often.

 The Unix Cluster FAQ
If you want others to be able to read from and write to your files, please write to "consult@virginia.edu" and ask for a Unix "group." With a "group," you can define a certain set of users that you want to have certain levels of access.
If the person is using the Unix Cluster, the command will show information similar to: node4: mst3k pts/3 Feb 2 07:34 (bogus.domain.Vir) The first bit of information shows which "node" of the cluster the other person is using.
To use the talk command, enter the command: talk ID@node#.unix.virginia.edu where ID is the computing ID of the person to whom you want to talk and node# is the node that person is using.

Most manufacturers updated their versions of the talk code to reflect the new approach, and everything was almost wonderful.
Some systems administrators at other sites do not like their users to use talk, especially to other sites (as it can be bandwidth intensive) and so block any talk attempts passing through their site routers/gateways.

UNIX was not designed to stop you from doing stupid things, because that would also stop you from doing clever things.
One of the fundamental concepts of Unix (and therefore Linux) is creating new tools from a wide range of smaller, dedicated tools.
Linux and Unix give you the freedom to use large tools or combinations of small tools in a myriad of ways that the creators of those tools could never have envisaged, and that developers working with closed operating systems can only dream about.

UNIX was conceived as a multi-user operating system, which is to say that many people would use the same machine, drives, etc. So, every file and folder in UNIX is assigned an owner, a group and also three sets of permissions.
