(Browse http://www.mhhe.com/andersen)Just Enough UNIX provides a quick and gentle introductionto the UNIX operating system. The fifth edition of this highlysuccessful text reflects changes and updates to the UNIXcurriculum that have taken place since the publication of thefourth edition. The book is written in a clear, straight for wardstyle that avoids un nec es sary jargon. This short, yetcomprehensive text covers the basics of UNIX.

It is theideal text for any Unix course. It can also be used for anyintroductory programming course that includes Unix and foradvanced courses such as those on Operating Systems andSystem Administration. Excellent pedagogy is implementedthroughout. Real-world examples make it easier for students tograsp concepts while chapters on advanced material take moreexperienced students beyond the basics. Over nine hundredexercises and self-test questions allow students to test andreinforce their understanding of material at different levels.This book also features coverage of Linux, where Linux differsfrom UNIX.NEW TO THIS EDITION• The number of chapters has been reduced from 24 to 19 to allowfor a more intense focus on core UNIX topics.• Coverage is logically divided between essential(chapters 1-13) andadvanced (chpaters 14-19) material.• Three new chapters on programming tools and systemsprogramming benefit the serious programmer and make the booksuitable for a course on systems programming.• Coverage of encryption and the Secure Shell has been added.• Discussion of vi and emacs editors uses snippets of code toillustrate the benefits to programmers of knowing the editor well.• The requirements of the POSIX standard have been highlightedthrough out.• A single comprehensive index replaces the multiple specializedindices from the previous edition.FEATURES• Notes, Tips, and Caution boxes provide on-the-spot assistance tostudents.• Linux coverage sup ple ments generic coverage of UNIX in caseswhere Linux behaves dif fer ent ly.• Coverage of the Korn, bash, and C shells is featured inappendices.• Scores of tables, di a grams, and screen shots make thefundamentals of the Unix operating system more accessible tostudents.• Over nine hundred self-test questions and exercises allow studentsto test and reinforce their understanding of key concepts.• Scores of real-life examples prompt the reader to envisionthe practical application of UNIX in situations they are likely toencounter.2815-60_CompSc.indd 2811/15/06 5:05:15 PM
