The Linux Command Line

ByWilliam Shotts

Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
The Linux desktop has made remarkable progress in the last few years, making it a legitimate rival to the offerings of both Microsoft and Apple. Yet, despite the progress that the graphical user interface has made, the real power of Linux remains where it has always been -- on the command line. Mastery of the command line is an essential skill for every Linux system administrator and any Linux user who wishes to exploit the full potential of their Linux system. Designed for the beginning command line user, The Linux Command Line takes the reader on a journey from the first keystrokes to the process of writing powerful programs in the command line's native language. Along the way, many classic command line programs and key computing concepts are examined and explored. Printed in large, easy to read format, this book is ideal for classroom use. A free, downloadable version of the text (in PDF format) is available at www.LinuxCommand.org.
