Hi everyone!!! Smilie
I just want to say that I'm a new user of Unix, about 6 weeks. I'm taking a Programming and Logic course at a school in New York State, and we use Unix to operate Emacs, our code editor. I'm also taking a course called Unix Operating System. To be perfectly honest, I don't really understand everything, but I'm having fun learning!!! For my Unix class, we have to write a paper on 5 Unix resources and tell how we think they will help the average user learn about the Unix Operating System. So far, I think this is a great site because I can read about other peoples' experiences, not just commands out of a textbook. Drop me a line, I would write to you, but I dont know how!! (Yet!!!!)
