So how should it be pronounced?
soo-doo or soo-dough
"S U do"
I concur with Jim - "Ess You Doo"
Mind you - we normally type these commands, or read them. Very rarely
do we say them out loud.
Others in the same region:
fsck fissik/eff ess check/eff sik
gcc gee sea sea / ?
ssh ess ess aitch / shhh / shoosh
wget doubleyou get / wuh-get
strace ess-strace / strace / street race
Opposites - commands with no ambiguity in pronunciation
grep
sed
awl
perl
make
telnet
elinks
