Editorial Review Product Description The Linux Programming Interface is the definitive guide to the Linux and UNIX programming interface—the interface employed by nearly every application that runs on a Linux or UNIX system. In this authoritative work, Linux programming expert Michael Kerrisk provides detailed descriptions of the system calls and library functions that you need in order to master the craft of system programming, and accompanies his explanations with clear, complete example programs. You'll find descriptions of over 500 system calls and library functions, and more than 200 example programs, 88 tables, and 115 diagrams. You'll learn how to: While The Linux Programming Interface covers a wealth of Linux-specific features, including epoll, inotify, and the /proc file system, its emphasis on UNIX standards (POSIX.1-2001/SUSv3 and POSIX.1-2008/SUSv4) makes it equally valuable to programmers working on other UNIX platforms. The Linux Programming Interface is the most comprehensive single-volume work on the Linux and UNIX programming interface, and a book that's destined to become a new classic. Customer Reviews (2)

Editorial Review Product Description This UNIX book, in contrast, assumes that you are basically acompetent and intelligent individual, and that you are sufficientlysecure in your self-image at work that you simply want to get thingsdone, simply, by taking advantage of the real power of UNIX without having to learn"man-speak". It doesn't skimp on clear introductions andoverviews, but the focus of the book is on practical examples of themost useful UNIX commands and utilities. A minor quibble: the enclosedCD-ROM is a bit heavy with utilities and packages that are probablyalready resident on your UNIX system (like Perl, Emacs, pbmplus), butit does contain scripts that are used throughout the book and thatyou'd probably rather not type in. Highlyrecommended for anyone who really wants to use UNIX, and not justcower or pose. Customer Reviews (4)
I like this book
Jam packed with goodies! If you are a beginner, you can open this book, and find all kinds of great tools and techniques you never knew about before.Everything is described briefly, in just a page or two, so you can immediately get something out of it.If you are more advanced, you will find yourself flipping through pages, saying, "Yes, I knew that.Yes, I knew that.Oh, I didn't know that!" This book is jam packed with tips, techniques and tutorials.If you're a serious UNIX user or shell programmer, this is an extremely handy book to have around.It's only negative might be that there is just so much in here, it is sometimes overwhelming.On the up side, there is an excellent index at the back.
An easy to follow, brick sized book
The ultimate Unix book. In particular there is alot of info here on shell scripting showing the differences between theKorn, Bourne and C shells. What is good about this book is that it' notjust a refernce but shows you the steps in getting really difficult thingsdone. ... Read more |

Quick reference for the experienced This book won't hold your hand and teach you what a file or directory is.It is not a tutorial.It is assumed that you know the basics.I have referred to this book on numerous occasions when I had to write CGI scripts, or assigned to quick and dirty projects involving some flavor of UNIX, or porting applications to UNIX from Windows/Win-32. So, if you are like me, and don't want to spend a few hours plowing through a UNIX man pages just to remember the syntax of gzip, tar, or locating a command you used before and don't really remember what it was, this book is for you.
Great resource for UNIX neophytes "UNIX for the Impatient" patiently takes you through the most rudimentary topics like shells, kernel, and file permissions to the utilities, editors, and scripting. The section on mailers and newsreaders was most interesting to me, since I work with the Microsoft-based messaging applications. The best thing - after reading this book, I was able to use various funky terms like "grep", "Emacs", "chmod" and "kill" which are usually not understood by the rest of the uninitiated MCSEs.
One of the best UNIX books I've seen I highly recommend this book to anyone starting off in UNIX, be it user or sysadmin.
Ideal quick reference for an experienced IT professional The book is indexed by function, not just by command.For example,suppose you want to compress a bunch of files.Looking up compress takesyou to p.140; reading the possibilities you soon discover that gzip and tarare probably the programs you want to use.You can check out tar anddiscover the alternatives, cpio and pax, and find out which might be mostportable in your situation. I use this book for several projects at aclient site where I had to write Perl and Tcl/Tk apps.I found itinvaluable for everything from help with Emacs to locating utilities. Ishould also add that the book is written very much in the style of areference manual, *NOT* of a tutorial or guide.You should be comfortablewith digging in reference books before you buy this, or you might find it afrustrating book to work with.I think most programmers pick up this skillvery quickly, so I think this will exclude mostly beginners.
Great for the not-quite-beginner |

A good "time saver" Overall this is a good book. It can save you a lot of time, both from learning C Shell AND from work in using C shell. One thing could be added: a summery of all the commands.

Everyone is on a learning curve
Learning Linux is an incredible intelligent investment
compatible cultures
Gancarz is a philosopher Five stars for "Linux and the Unix Philosophy" because foremost it is an excellent discussion of the importance of the Open Source revolution. Also, what this text does is not to repeat the basic Unix design's principles e.g. 'everything in Unix is a file' e.t.c., but instead it focuses in some inspiring and innovative approaches to software engineering, mostly applied in the GNU/Linux world. It finaly proves in many ways the superiority of GNU/Linux - and Unix in general - in contrast to the other "desktop" systems. One thing I enjoyed the most is the parallelism between some Unix tenets and corresponding real life examples. Having read a lot of texts about Unix and Open Source Software I deeply recommend this book.
Brilliant Read You needn't necessarily be a programmer to appreciate this book, there is no code or assumption that you have any development skills whatsoever. You should at least really appreciate software systems as works of architecture. I'll leave it at that. My *only* criticism is that at times I wasn't quite in tune with the author's sense of humor, but that's my only criticism. I highly recommend this book. ... Read more |
