Synopsis :

If you're one of the many Unix developers drawn to Mac OS X for its BSD core, you'll find yourself in surprisingly unfamiliar territory. Even if you're an experienced Mac user, Mac OS X is unlike earlier Macs, and it's radically different from the Unix you've used before, too.

Enter "Mac OS X for Unix Geeks" by Brian Jepson and Ernest E. Rothman, two Unix geeks who found themselves in the same place you are. Their new book is your guide to figuring out the BSD Unix system and Mac-specific components that are making your life difficult and to help ease you into the Unix inside Mac OS X. This concise book includes such topics as: A quick overview of the Terminal applicationUnderstanding Open Directory (LDAP) and NetInfoIssues related to using the GNU C Compiler 9GCCLibrary linking and porting Unix softwareAn overview of Mac OS X's filesystem and startup processesCreating and installing packages using FinkBuilding the Darwin kernelRunning X Windows on top of Mac OS XThe book wraps up with a quick manpage-style reference to the "Missing Manual Pages"--commands that come with Mac OS X although there are no manpages.

If you find yourself disoriented by the new Mac environment, "Mac OS X for Unix Geeks can help you acclimate yourself quickly to the familiar, yet foreign, Unix landscape.

À propos de l?auteur:

Brian Jepson maintains a keen focus on the sparks that fly where two cutting edges meet. He has published print and online articles that examine the intersection of Open Source and Windows (particularly .NET). Mac OS X is one such intersection, combining a solid Unix core with the pioneering Apple user interface. Brian's prior experience developing applications in Unix and Linux give him an appreciation of the target audience's point of view. His thorough explorations of NeXTSTEP and Mac OS X -- conducted over the last few years -- kept him oriented as he developed this book. Ernest E. Rothman is an Associate Professor of Mathematics at Salve Regina University (SRU) where he is also Chair of the Mathematical Sciences Department as well as Manager of the Computational Science Program. Before SRU, Ernie held the position of Research Associate at the Cornell Theory Center at Cornell University. Ernie holds a PhD degree in Applied Mathematics from Brown University. His academic interests are primarily in Scientific Computing, and Computational Science Education. More details can be found at his website http://homepage.mac.com/samchops/ROTHMAN/rothman.html.
