A unique guide to the classic Linux/Unix Toolset.
Programming is more than just coding. Software developers must build, analyse and test their programs; they have to avoid performance bottlenecks, administer internal and foreign modifications, find and remove errors. Using tools available under Linux/Unix, developers can solve the problems of the programming practice.
* Tools covered are the 'classics' in Linux/Unix environments
* Unique coverage of wide range of tools including: DIFF, PATCH, UNRAVEL, GPROF, GCOV, SniFF+ and many more
* Includes practical exercises to test competence
* Companion Web site includes information on more recent developments as well as extensive additional resources
