First, UNIX, unlike Windows, is not simple. It's not a point and click OS (although some versions are trying to get there). Part of the appeal is that you can change it (unlike Windows) to your needs.

Second, there are MANY web pages out there - but you have to do a search for them. Try Unix is a Four Letter Word for a start. Note that it was first started almost ten years ago.

There are many books on the subject - see the FAQ on this site for suggestions. Or a search.



If this were the Matrix, you could call Tank on a land line and have him download "UNIX". Then you could write your cheat sheet.
