Versions of UNIX
There are many different versions of UNIX. Until a few years
ago, there were two main versions: the line of UNIX releases that started at
AT&T (the latest is System V Release 4), and another line from the
University of California at Berkeley (the latest version is BSD 4.4). Some
other major commercial versions include SunOS, Solaris, SCO UNIX, AIX, HP/UX,
and ULTRIX. The freely available versions include Linux and FreeBSD (FreeBSD is
based on 4.4BSD-Lite).
Many versions of UNIX, including System V Release 4, merge
earlier AT&T releases with BSD features. The recent POSIX standard for
UNIX-like operating systems defines a single interface to UNIX. Although
advanced features differ among systems, you should be able to use this
introductory handbook on any type of system.
UNIX can be used the way it was originally designed, on
typewriter-like terminals. Most versions of UNIX can also work with window
systems, which allow each user to have more than one “terminal” on a single
display. Chapter 2, shows the basics of a window system. All other chapters are
for every UNIX user—with or without a window system.
