Beneath Mac OS� X's stunning graphical user interface (GUI) is the most powerful operating system ever created: UNIX�. With unmatched clarity and insight, this book explains UNIX for the Mac OS X user―giving you total control over your system, so you can get more done, faster.

This book is packed with hundreds of high-quality examples. From networking and system utilities to shells and programming, this is UNIX from the ground up―both the "whys" and the "hows"―for every Mac user. You'll understand the relationships between GUI tools and their command line counterparts. Need instant answers?
