:
|
Annotation The Mac command line offers a faster, easier way to accomplish many tasks. It & prime;s also the medium for many commands that aren & prime;t accessible using the GUI. The Mac OS X Command Line is a clear, concise, tutorial & ndash;style introduction to all the major functionality provided by the command line. It & prime;s also packed with information the experienced users need, including little & ndash;known shortcuts and several chapters devoted to advanced topics. This is a book to get you started, but also a book you won & rsquo;t soon outgrow.
