The seven standard Unix file types are regular, directory, symbolic link, FIFO special, block special, character special, and socket as defined by POSIX. Different OS-specific implementations allow more types than what POSIX requires (e.g. Solaris doors).A file's type can be identified by the ls -l command, which displays the type in the first character of the file-system permissions …

In computer programming, glob (/ ɡ l ɑː b /) patterns specify sets of filenames with wildcard characters.For example, the Unix Bash shell command mv *.txt textfiles/ moves (mv) all files with names ending in .txt from the current directory to the directory textfiles.Here, * is a wildcard standing for "any string of characters except /" and *.txt is a glob pattern.

The computer tool patch is a Unix program that updates text files according to instructions contained in a separate file, called a patch file.The patch file (also called a patch for short) is a text file that consists of a list of differences and is produced by running the related diff program with the original and updated file as arguments. Updating files with patch is often referred to as ...

A Unix shell is a command-line interpreter or shell that provides a command line user interface for Unix-like operating systems.The shell is both an interactive command language and a scripting language, and is used by the operating system to control the execution of the system using shell scripts.. Users typically interact with a Unix shell using a terminal emulator; …

The ln command is a standard Unix command utility used to create a hard link or a symbolic link (symlink) to an existing file or directory. The use of a hard link allows multiple filenames to be associated with the same file since a hard link points to the inode of a given file, the data of which is stored on disk.On the other hand, symbolic links are special files that refer to other files by ...

A universally unique identifier (UUID) is a 128-bit label used for information in computer systems. The term globally unique identifier (GUID) is also used.. When generated according to the standard methods, UUIDs are, for practical purposes, unique. Their uniqueness does not depend on a central registration authority or coordination between the parties generating them, …

History. cut is part of the X/Open Portability Guide since issue 2 of 1987. It was inherited into the first version of POSIX.1 and the Single Unix Specification. It first appeared in AT&T System III UNIX in 1982.. The version of cut bundled in GNU coreutils was written by David M. Ihnat, David MacKenzie, and Jim Meyering. The command is available as a separate package for Microsoft …

History. The original version of file originated in Unix Research Version 4 in 1973. System V brought a major update with several important changes, most notably moving the file type information into an external text file rather than compiling it into the binary itself.. Most major BSD and Linux distributions use a free, open-source reimplementation which was written in 1986–87 …

Plan 9 from Bell Labs is a distributed operating system which originated from the Computing Science Research Center (CSRC) at Bell Labs in the mid-1980s and built on UNIX concepts first developed there in the late 1960s. Since 2000, Plan 9 has been free and open-source.The final official release was in early 2015. Under Plan 9, UNIX's everything is a file metaphor is …

C++ (pronounced "C plus plus") is a high-level general-purpose programming language created by Danish computer scientist Bjarne Stroustrup as an extension of the C programming language, or "C with Classes".The language has expanded significantly over time, and modern C++ now has object-oriented, generic, and functional features in addition to facilities for low-level memory …

Newline (frequently called line ending, end of line (EOL), next line (NEL) or line break) is a control character or sequence of control characters in character encoding specifications such as ASCII, EBCDIC, Unicode, etc.This character, or a sequence of characters, is used to signify the end of a line of text and the start of a new one.
