- js2 13y agoIt's too bad that Linux and OS X don't ship with a very useful intro man page. Here's what SunOS's used to look like: http://www.manpages.info/sunos/intro.1.html http://www.manpages.info/sunos/intro.1.html Note the list of commands. I guess you could ls /usr/bin and just start reading their man pages.
- AlecSchueler 13y ago`man 7 charsets` is a great read which recommends checking out the pages for console(4), console_codes(4), console_ioctl(4), ascii(7), iso_8859-1(7), unicode(7) and utf-8(7).
- casca 13y agoThanks, updated.
- chrisdotcode 13y ago`mdfind' in non-Mac UNIXs is spelled `locate' (and the corresponding `updatedb' updates the indexing db, obviously (although you don't have to do this often, as it runs as a cron job)).
- Camillo 13y agomdfind is incomparably more powerful than locate.
