The recently released UNIX CD Bookshelf contains six O'Reilly books plus the software from UNIX Power Tools-all on a convenient CD-ROM. A bonus hardcopy book of the bestselling UNIX in a Nutshell: System V Edition, is also included. It has a master index for all six books and a powerful search engine-and all the text is extensively hyperlinked-so you can find what you're looking for quickly . Packaged with the hardcopy of Unix in a Nutshell, it takes up less than 2 inches of bookshelf space, and when you're on the run, juts grab the CD and go. The six included books, purchased separately, would retail for $175.70, but this CD-ROM package retails for only $69.95.
The CD-ROM contains the complete text of:
- UNIX in a Nutshell: System V Edition
- UNIX Power Tools, 2nd Edition (with software)
- Learning the UNIX Operating System, 4th Edition
- Learning the vi Editor, 5th Ed.
- sed & awk, 2nd Edition
- Learning the Korn Shell
Formatted in HTML, The UNIX CD Bookshelf can be read by any Web browser. The books are fully searchable and cross-referenced. In addition to individual indexes for each book, a master index for the entire library is provided.
