In addition to UNIX Power Tools, you'll find the complete text of the following books: Learning the UNIX Operating System, 4th Edition; Learning the vi Editor, 5th Edition; sed & awk, 2nd Edition; Learning the Korn Shell; and UNIX in a Nutshell, System V Edition.

Never has it been easier to learn, or look up, what you need to know online. Formatted in HTML, The UNIX CD Bookshelf can be read by any Web browser. The books are fully searchable and cross-referenced. In addition to individual indexes for each book, a master index for the entire library is provided.

Reviews

This package includes Daniel Gilly's Unix in a Nutshell (O'Reilly, 1992. 2d ed.) along with a CD text of six books: Unix Power Tools (2d ed.), Learning the UNIX Operating System, sed & awk (2d ed.), Unix in a Nutshell, Learning the vi Editor (5th ed.), and Learning the Korn Shell. This set contains a good deal of UNIX info, but much of it is very old. The chief advantage over the books is the ability to "search" the CD. This is an optional purchase.
