Unix

Unix is pretty amazing for many things.

I mostly love its philosophy of making small composable tools that do one thing and do it well.

Notes

  • /dev/tty is a synonym for the controlling terminal (if any) of the current process.

Links

  • - Awesome lookback on history of UNIX.

  • - Simple Unix shell written in Rust.
