A Commentary on the Sixth Edition UNIX Operating System by John Lions (later reissued as Lions' Commentary on UNIX 6th Edition [1] [2] and commonly referred to as the Lions Book) is a highly influential [3] 1976 publication containing analytical commentary on the source code of the 6th Edition Unix computer operating system "resident nucleus" [4] (i.e., kernel) software, plus copy formatted ...
Unix (/ ˈ j uː n ɪ k s / ⓘ, YOO-niks; trademarked as UNIX) is a family of multitasking, multi-user computer operating systems that derive from the original AT&T Unix, whose development started in 1969 [1] at the Bell Labs research center by Ken Thompson, Dennis Ritchie, and others. [4]
In computer networking, STREAMS is the native framework in Unix System V for implementing character device drivers, network protocols, and inter-process communication.In this framework, a stream is a chain of coroutines that pass messages between a program and a device driver (or between a pair of programs).
ed (pronounced as distinct letters, / ˌ iː ˈ d iː /) [1] is a line editor for Unix and Unix-like operating systems. It was one of the first parts of the Unix operating system that was developed, in August 1969. [2] It remains part of the POSIX and Open Group standards for Unix-based operating systems, [3] alongside the more sophisticated ...
A Unix shell is a command-line interpreter or shell that provides a command line user interface for Unix-like operating systems. The shell is both an interactive command language and a scripting language , and is used by the operating system to control the execution of the system using shell scripts .
The book illustrates UNIX application programming in the C programming language. The first edition of the book was published by Addison-Wesley in 1992. It covered programming for the two popular families of the Unix operating system, the Berkeley Software Distribution (in particular 4.3 BSD and 386BSD) and AT&T's UNIX System V (particularly SVR4).
