Unix Programming Tools

Stanford CS Education Library: a 16 page introduction to the use of common Unix programming tools. Introduces the overall edit-compile-link-debug programming cycle and the explains the basic usage of...gcc, make, gdb, emacs, and the shell. The goal is to describe the major features and typical uses of the tools and show how they fit together with enough detail for basic projects. We use a version of this handout at Stanford to help our students get started building programs on Unix.
