no, but i have seen the printed manuals for ver V unix, as much as most people could lift. one of the neat things about unix (and many systems with an underlying command line, or more accurately an overlying graphical interface, since unix started on wonderful text terminal) is that every program becomes a new command, and can be treated as such. unix will let an advanced user do all kinds of insanely clever and tricky things just from the command line, it's easy to make a program run with input from a file, dump that into another file or as input to another program, and so on until you get dizzy and the data has gone everywhere. it's cool, i'm looking forward to being a *nix geek, it was way cool when i played with it in 91 and 92 (in 91 in an assembly language class, i actually like assembly language on a good processor, the other time was just a little playing in my spare time while i was taking other classes so i didn't get to play with it much). i can't tell you how thrilled i am that apple finally got on the *nix wagon, and open source is just too cool, to everyone except microsoft that is!!
