Mac OS X for Unix Geeks, 4th Edition

If you�re a developer or system administrator lured to Mac OS X because of its Unix roots, you�ll quickly discover that performing Unix tasks on a Mac is different than what you�re accustomed to. Mac OS X for Unix Geeks serves as a bridge between Apple�s Darwin OS and the more traditional Unix systems. This clear, concise guide gives you a tour of Mac OS X�s Unix shell in both Leopard and Tiger, and helps you find the facilities that replace or correspond to standard Unix utilities.

You�ll learn how to perform common Unix tasks in Mac OS X, such as using Directory Services instead of the standard Unix /etc/passwd and /etc/group, and you�ll be able to compile code, link to libraries, and port Unix software using either Leopard and Tiger. This book teaches you to:

Navigate the Terminal and understand how it differs from an xterm
Use Open Directory (LDAP) and NetInfo as well as Directory Services
Compile your code with GCC 4
Port Unix programs to Mac OS X with Fink
Use MacPorts to install free/open source software
Search through metadata with Spotlight�s command-line utilities
Build the Darwin kernel
And there�s much more. Mac OS X for Unix Geeks is the ideal survival guide to tame the Unix side of Leopard and Tiger. If you�re a Unix geek with an interest in Mac OS X, you�ll soon find that this book is invaluable.

Advanced Programming in the Unix Environment 2nd

The second edition of Advanced Programming in the UNIX� Environment has been updated to reflect contemporary operating systems and recent changes in standards. In addition, the example chapters were overhauled. The four platforms used to test the examples in the book include FreeBSD 5.2.1, Linux 2.4.22, Mac OS X 10.3, and Solaris 9. These platforms are a moving target, and most likely there are newer versions available now, so your mileage may vary.
Major changes include the addition of a chapter on sockets, two chapters on threads, and the removal of the chapter discussing modem communication, although this lost chapter is available here. Additionally, the printer communication chapter was rewritten to account for today�s network-based printers.

UNIX Systems Programming

Well written and comprehensive, this book explains complicated topics such as signals and concurrency in a simple, easy-to-understand manner. The book offers an abundance of practical examples and exercises. This book is comparable to other best-selling UNIX books, such as UNIX Network Programming, by Richard Stevens. Covers fundamentals, asynchronous events, concurrency, and communication. For programmers in need of a better understanding of UNIX systems programming.

Unix Shells By Example 4Th Edition

The second edition of Unix Shells by Examples shows off basic commands and utilities in the three most popular Unix shells--C, Bourne, and Korn--with side-by-side examples. The new edition of this book is sure to be a wortF2F reference for Unix programmers for getting around their favorite shell. The best thing in this new edition is that the author presents short, effective examples of using basic commands and utilities for each of the three major Unix shells. This comparative approach means that you can use this book on different flavors of Unix and even migrate scripts between different shells. For each shell, the author provides fundamentals, like accessing profiles, command-line histories, and shell programming. "Lab sections" let you develop your skills with short, hands-on exercises for each shell. As in the earlier edition, the author's short examples show you how to perform basic tasks quickly with common switches and options. Other sections here cover three major Unix utilities: grep (for searching), sed (for editing), and awk (for scripting and reporting). (The reference and tutorial on AWK programming is a notable feature here. There is also good coverage of regular expressions.) Instead of hunting down information in countless man pages, this book will save you valuable time every day with its efficient format and comparative approach--truly useful features for the beginning and intermediate Unix user. --Richard Dragan Topics covered: C, Bourne, and Korn Unix shells; grep, sed, and awk utilities; regular expressions; and shell programming.
