Today, Unix encompasses everything from Sun's Solaris to Apple's Mac OS X and more varieties of Linux than you can easily name. The latest edition of this bestselling reference brings Unix into the 21st century. It's been reworked to keep current with the broader state of Unix in today's world and highlight the strengths of this operating system in all its various flavors. Detailing all Unix commands and options, the informative guide provides generous descriptions and examples that put those commands in context. Here are some of the new features you'll find in Unix in a Nutshell, Fourth Edition: * Solaris 10, the latest version of the SVR4-based operating system, GNU/Linux, and Mac OS X * Bash shell (along with the 1988 and 1993 versions of ksh) * tsch shell (instead of the original Berkeley csh) * Package management programs, used for program installation on popular GNU/Linux systems, Solaris and Mac OS X * GNU Emacs Version 21 * Introduction to source code management systems * Concurrent versions system * Subversion version control system * GDB debugger As Unix has progressed, certain commands that were once critical have fallen into disuse. To that end, the book has also dropped material that is no longer relevant, keeping it taut and current.

Unix in a Nutshell is the standard desktop reference, without question. (Manpages come in a close second.) With a clean layout and superior command tables available at a glance, O'Reilly's third edition of Nutshell is an essential to own.
Like a dictionary, Unix in a Nutshell helps you find what you need, even if you're not exactly sure what you're looking for (or how to spell it!). With that in mind, this book is for intermediate to advanced users only--those new to the Unix operating system would be better off with Learning the Unix Operating System or Unix: Visual Quickstart Guide.
The last full revision of the book was in 1992, and the new edition covers Solaris 7 as well as newer versions of shells (ksh, in particular), RCS, and GNU emacs. Topping off at over 500 pages, Unix in a Nutshell contains--literally--everything you could want to know about the various commands, shells, and functions. Fifty new commands have been added to the already sizable lists, and even the most seasoned user is likely to find a discover a new timesaving command. --Jennifer Buckendorff -- Dieser Text bezieht sich auf eine vergriffene oder nicht verfügbare Ausgabe dieses Titels.

Maybe I expected too much from the book, but: It is not a tutorial - commands just listed with minimal explanation. It is not a good reference - you cannot search by functionality. it is not very detailed - lots of parameters are unexplained. I'd really recommend to use man and apropos - much more helpful.

Unix in a Nutshell continues to be the best overall reference book on the Unix operating system. Organized so that all commands and options are easily found and understood, it is an indispensable tool for those who work in a Unix environment. But it is not just a guide to Unix commands and their options, it also contains a mass of useful information about the Unix Shell, shell scripting, text editing and formatting, and much more. Truely one of the most useful computer reference books I have ever purchased, and for the money it is the best bargain you will find in the Unix field. I highly recommend it for all those who work with (or are interested in) Unix and want just about all the information they could need in one neat package. A great buy.

I've just ordered a second copy of this book, so I can keep one at hand at home and one in the office.
If you're doing everyday Unix work, get this book. It covers everything from basic commands, to a comparison of pattern-matching in different languages and applications, shell cheat-sheets (hmmm, how does STDERR redirection in ksh work again?), a terse vi reference, etc. etc.
Don't be fooled by the "Solaris" stuff, it's got written on it and in it everywhere. I use it with Linux, AIX (primarily) and BSD, and only very few of the solaris-specific commands don't work.
4 Stars because I'm missing a brief Perl reference in this book.

What can I say, their books are great. I've always found them to be the best out there.
Although this is a reference, not a how-to, I had no problems with it as a beginner. With only this book and "Unix is a four letter word", I have had no trouble passing my unix class at school. Thats a heck of alot more than I can say for most reference books.

I had a 1992 copy of this book and just recently found out about the updated version. Wow. This updated version contains most if not all of the information in the old one plus so much more! Once again, this book is probably the best reference book out there about UNIX.
This book devotes almost 200 pages alone to commands, along with chapters on the various shells, vi commands, emacs, various text formatting macros, and even a chapter about awk.
If you are a UNIX 'geek' or 'wannabe UNIX geek' like me, or just want to know more about UNIX, this book is for you. It's probably not for beginners however. They would be advised to buy "Learning About UNIX" or another good introductory book.

Not being a unix user, I purchased this as a reference to pick up and find the tool/command that I needed to use. It lays out the commands in a simple and easy to follow way (with examples!) explaining the options for the commands.
There are chapters on shell scripts that are also quite useful.

It won't teach you UNIX, but it will provide quick answers to most questions about commands.
It's pretty much a collection of man pages. The book is most useful for looking up information on the fly. It should be within arms reach whenever you're using UNIX.
Von A. Ross
Format:Taschenbuch
Don't buy it: 1. If you don't need to know Unix. 2. If you don't have questions working with Unix :-) 3. If you have perfect memory and remember all Unix commands. Very useful as a reference book. It is a sort of a dictionary in The Unix World, but remember it is a reference book, not a text book.

Useful reference
Awesome technical reference manual, but doesn't provide very much background or overview information. Not for beginners.

Indispensable!
This book isn't going to teach you UNIX. If you're already familiar with UNIX, though, this book is an essential part of any IT reference library.

Practical. Always by my side.
This is the book I always turn to when I have a UNIX question. No other book has so much jam-packed information.
It is clearly organized. Lesen Sie weiter...
