Hi Don, I was able to get through a lot of this over the weekend. Much of it was review, but some of it I'd never heard of before--mostly the stuff in the appendix. Anyway, you did put in a brief note about customizing your linux environment through adding stuff to your .bashrc. I've remember doing something similar in my .profile when I used AIX over a year ago. Anyway, when you get a chance maybe you can tell me the difference in function between .bashrc and .profile files. Also, I want to make a setting in VIM that whenever I VI a file, it automatically opens it w/ the numbers set on, so I don't have to do the "se nu" command every time. (I'm lazy, I know.) Any ideas? I know that I should do a little research and look all this up on the web, but I barely have time to read my emails these days. Maybe I can get to my research topics during maternity leave! Thanks--hope all is well w/ your family, Kristi PS--4.5 Prego weeks left--wahoo!!

I've converted it to DOCBOOK format, added new sections, done a lot of proofreading and formatting, etc. Needless to say, I have read it many, many times. I would like some other people to read it. I would really appreciate if some of you could take a look at it. You can find .pdf, .ps, .html and the source at: http://vh224401.truman.edu/~dbindner/guide/ Email me with improvements, or send me (unified) diffs of the DOCBOOK source if you like. If you think you'll be contributing lots of changes, I am keeping it in an OpenCM repository, and you can email me about getting access to that.
