Hello. I am need of some information for a school project that I am hoping everyone may be able to help me with. What I need to do is make a reference chart as large as possible that covers various basic commands for the various operating systems in existance. For example: Command Summary UNIX MS-DOS TOPS-10 display directory ls -l dir dir copy a file cp old new copy old new copy new old What I need from Netland is the common commands for the various operating systems. Such as XENIX, VMS, CP/M, AppleDos, BSD, Xenix, TRS/Ls Dos, etc. Just the basic commands. This also will go into making "alias templates" for CSH and KSH for users on UNIX systems who would like to have a command set of their native machine. Here is a small list of commands that I would like for the chart. It is not all of them, just the ones I can think of off hand. I am using the UNIX equivalents of each since UNIX is my native operating system. cat cd/chdir chmod ln lpr mkdir more/less mv rm cp ls biff finger who mail/mailx mesg write/chat cal calendar date lock pwd uptime man pr cmp diff find grep head/tail sort uniq wc kill ps tee time I know that some operating systems will not have some of these commands, like MSDOS would not have 'who' or 'ps'. Those will be represented by 'N/A' in the chart. I would also like to have the commands for entering both common line and full screen editors, especially for the ones that come with the operating system. Not the editor commands, just the command to get into an editor. After this project, and if it gets a good grade, my next project will probably be along the same lines with the exception of making a chart for editors, both full screen and line. All information and help would be greatly appreciated. Please mail all replies so I can be sure to collect them all. And if you are interested in the "aliasing templates", mail me and I will get them to you upon their completion. If there is enough interest in them, I may post them to the net. Sorry about the cross posting but I wanted to get this to all the groups that dealt with a different operating system. Thanks for your help. -Jo ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |Joseph E Poplawski (Jo) US Mail: 1621 Jackson Street | | Cinnaminson NJ 08077 | |UUCP:..!rutgers!rochester!moscom!telesci!fantasci!jep | | ..!princeton!telesci!fantasci!jep Phone: +1 609 786-8099 home | | ..!pyrnj!telesci!fantasci!jep | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Life is too short to dance with ugly women! | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
