	Unix - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Unix or UNIX is a computer operating system originally developed in the 1960s and 1970s by a group of ATandT Bell Labs employees including Ken Thompson, Dennis Ritchie, and Douglas McIlroy.
		The Unix systems are characterized by various concepts: plain text files, command line interpreter, hierarchical file system, treating devices and certain types of inter-process communication as files, etc. In software engineering, Unix is mainly noted for its use of the C programming language and for the Unix philosophy.
		During the late 1970s and early 1980s, Unix's influence in academic circles led to massive adoption (particularly of the BSD variant, originating from the University of California, Berkeley) of Unix by commercial startups, the most notable of which is Sun Microsystems.

	Unix - Encyclopedia Of Stupid
		Unix uses a command line interface like DOS and organizes files hierarchically.
		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.
		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).

	Unix utilities, Part 4
		Unix doesn't provide a standard mechanism for verifying that a new feature you've come to like is available on a slightly older system, and it doesn't provide a way to handle the feature's absence.
		Unix utilities and applications should not try to anticipate all possible needs, and they should never try to keep you from doing something that might be dangerous.
		Unix pipes marshal structured data between applications in a transparent way, which allows a great deal of flexibility for other applications and tools to operate on this data in ways that the original designers would not even have anticipated.

	What is Unix? - a definition from Whatis.com
		Unix has evolved as a kind of large freeware product, with many extensions and new ideas provided in a variety of versions of Unix by different companies, universities, and individuals.
		The Unix environment and the client/server program model were important elements in the development of the Internet and the reshaping of computing as centered in networks rather than in individual computers.
		Linux, a Unix derivative available in both "free software" and commercial versions, is increasing in popularity as an alternative to proprietary operating systems.

	Unix
		UNIX is portable from large systems to medium-sized systems to single user systems. Some say its portability is due to the fact that it is written in a high-level language, C, instead of assembly language, as are most operating systems.
		UNIX's commands are so brief that novice users find the operating system unfriendly. UNIX was written when only programmers used computers. It was written by programmers for programmers and the commands made sense to those writing UNIX. They do not always make sense to today's computer users.
		UNIX is a powerful, yet user unfriendly, operating system. And a lack of standards has made UNIX a difficult platform on which to code commercially available programs. However, the availability of UNIX in academia has made it the operating system of choice of the new generation of programmers.

		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.

	UNIX
		UNIX is a computer operating system which, over the years, has evolved into several major forms.
		UNIX does not require extensions; however, they can be used to help identify similar types of files.
		Because UNIX is a multi-tasking system, you can run one or more jobs in the background (unseen by the user) while continuing to work on another process in the foreground (seen on the user's screen).

	Nick Moffitt's $7 History of Unix
		Since Unix was written in C, it was much easier for a student to trace the flow of the code algorithmically.
		The whole Unix culture was based upon sending C source code from person to person, adding features and fixing bugs as time went on.
		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.
