The one thing that current Mac folks don't know enough about is the underlying Unix stuff. Educating the users will lead to (a) more conversions to Mac and(b) folks who are used to the Mac GUI getting more out of the system currently. The Mac OS X UNIX Toolbox is a handy, compact guide that teaches you how touse UNIX tools on Mac OS X. The goal is to make the reader comfortable with the same command-line tools used by experts world wide.

The books primarily goal is to expand UNIX expertise in these and other areas:• Using the shell • Finding software online • Working with files • Playing with music and images • Administering the file system • Backing up data • Checking and managing running processes • Accessing network resources • Handling remote system administration • Securing the machine • Using command-line tools and utilities
