Introduction on UNIX

Unix is a family of operating systems, multitasking & multiuser.
It was born from the evolution of a previous project called Multics. In 1983 Richard Stallman wrote the GNU General Public Licence to permit people to work on it and to modify it.
Philosophy:

  • write programs that do one thing and do it well;
  • write programs to work together;
  • make it easy to write text and run programs;
  • support interactive use instead of batch processing.
