September General Meeting
Unix Tips, Tricks, and Quirks
Speaker: Alan Dewar, Software Engineering Senior Staff Engineer,
Synopsys
If you've been using Unix for any reasonable length of time, you're familiar with the basics: file system structure, simple commands, etc. There are more advanced commands and utilities with which you might be less familiar, and which could help you be more productive. Then again, there are some things which are obtuse, quirky, or just plain weird.
Join us for a discussion of the joys, frustrations, and amusements to be had with Unix. We'll have time at the end for you to share your own experiences of the good, the bad, and the quirky!
Alan Dewar is a software engineering senior staff engineer at Synopsys, working as part of the Software Integrity Group. He has been using Unix since the early 1980s and its predecessor, Multics, before that. He is also a long-time CUUG member and director, as well as past President.
