Course Description

A warm welcome to the Unix and Shell Scripting course by Uplatz

What is Unix?

UNIX (or Unix) is an operating system first developed in the 1960s in the Bell Laboratories of AT&T and has been under constant development iterations ever since. It is a stable, multi-user, multi-tasking system for servers, desktops and laptops.

It provides its users with program development tools; and electronic communications facilities, such as electronic mail; text editors and text formats. There are also many development tools available as standard within the UNIX operating system that other operating systems require as add-ons.

UNIX systems also have a graphical user interface (GUI) similar to Microsoft Windows that provides an easy-to-use environment.

Types of Unix:

  • The Kernel:

    • The kernel is the core of UNIX, managing resources like time and memory, and handling file storage and communication in response to system calls. It acts as the bridge between the software and hardware.
  • The Shell:

    • The shell serves as the interface between the user and the kernel. When a user logs in, the system verifies their credentials and launches the shell, a command-line interpreter (CLI). The shell interprets user commands and executes them.
  • Programs:

    • UNIX treats everything as either a file or a process. A file is a collection of data, while a process is an executing program identified by a unique process identifier (PID). Files are created by users through text editors, compilers, and other tools.
  • Shell Variants
  • Bourne Shell (sh): The standard shell, designed for general-purpose use. It's small and efficient but lacks features like command history and aliasing.
  • C Shell (csh): Less efficient than the Bourne and Korn shells but popular for its scripting capabilities.
  • Korn Shell (ksh): An enhanced version of the Bourne shell, it offers more built-in functions, making it more efficient.
  • In UNIX, the shell interacts directly with the kernel, the heart of the operating system, ensuring smooth communication between applications and hardware.
