Linux: The Choice Of A Gnu Generation We'll use the more than apt description of Linux from ESR's Jargon File: Linux /lee'nuhks/ or /li'nuks/, not /li:'nuhks/ n. The free Unix workalike created by Linus Torvalds and friends starting about 1991. The pronunciation /li'nuhks/ is preferred because the name `Linus' has an /ee/ sound in Swedish (Linus's family is part of Finland's 6% ethnic-Swedish minority) and Linus considers English short /i/ to be closer to /ee/ than English long /i:/. This may be the most remarkable hacker project in history -- an entire clone of Unix for 386, 486 and Pentium micros, distributed for free with sources over the net (ports to Alpha and Sparc and many other machines are also in use). Linux is what GNU aimed to be, and it relies on the GNU toolset. But the Free Software Foundation didn't produce the kernel to go with that toolset until 1999, which was too late. Other, similar efforts like FreeBSD and NetBSD have been technically successful but never ca

  • This is a shirt with a Linux cheat sheet printed upside-down, so you can glance down at it while hacking. Aimed at the non-guru, it's mainly an overview of useful programs and in some cases handy arguments, and includes a guide to regular expressions. We recommend wearing this to any Linux job interview that involves a test. You can check out how observant they are, and also what their sense of humor is like. We also recommend bringing a change of clothes, in case they make you take it off. Assorted Linux commands in white on a black 100% cotton t-shirt..

  • An elite brand of coder, the reverse engineer usually takes a finished product (generally compiled or in a proprietary format), and, through a variety of techniques, is able to understand the inner workings and to apply that understanding in a variety of ways. Why? Sometimes just for intellectual curiosity. Sometimes from boredom. And sometimes you need to convert a proprietary driver/format for one Operating System and port it to another. Jon recently did this to create a Linux driver for a small receipt printing machine we'll use @ LinuxWorld this year. (Ed. Note: When this was written, it was 2001.) Of course you don't have to limit the scope of the reverse engineer to formats and compiled code - you can also reverse engineer, say, a Snickers Bar, or even a sheep ;) Black, 100% cotton t-shirt with 'reverse engineer' printed in reverse on the front..
