Practical Guide to Linux Commands, Editors, and Shell Programming, A, 3/E
New To This Edition
MySQL has become the database of choice for web developers. And Python has emerged as the scripting language of choice for Linux systems, supplanting Perl. As such, Sobell has added new MySQL and Pytrhon tutorials to the book. He has also added coverage of these important Linux commands/programs: FUES, nl, join, expand/unexpand, dstat, and iftp. He has also added sections on managing symbolic links, displaying system information, internationalization, shell programming tricks, and time zone management.
This new edition also covers how to run commands in an Amazon EC2 Linux instance, as more and more websites are being built on Amazon's cloud; how to create a VMWare or VirtualBox virtual machine; how to use the nano text editor and the busybox shell.
