Mac OS X for Unix Geeks Zusammenfassung

Mac OS X for Unix Geeks Brian Jepson

This is a 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. The book includes such topics as: a quick overview of the Terminal application; understanding open directory (LDAP) and NetInfo; issues related to using the GNU C Compiler 9 GCC; library linking and porting Unix software; an overview of Mac OSX?s filesystem and startup processes; creating and installing packages using Fink; building the Darwin kernel; and running X Windows on top of Mac OS X. The book wraps up with a quick manpage-style reference to the Missing Manual Pages - commands that come with Mac OSX although there are no manpages.

Über Brian Jepson

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.
