=====unix Keywords=====
====unix Keyword: The VI Editor====
===Definition===
The VI Editor, one of the greats, nano on steroids. VI Editor is a text editor with much more to bring to the table, between its tools and its unique style of dealing with the editing of text. It is in simple a text editor with extras.
===Demonstration===
To demonstrate the VI Editor, I will show a fully functional VI Interface with the extra of line numbers and syntax highlighting:
lab46:~$ install vim
lab46:~$ vi test.c
1 #include
2 #include
3 #include
4
5 int main(int argc, char **argv){
6 int input;
7 bool check = false;
8 unsigned char i;
9 while (check == false){
10 printf("Enter a value (0-4):");
11 scanf("%d", &input);
12 if (input > 4 || input < 0){
13 printf("You have entered an incorrect value.\n");
14 check = false;
15 }else{
16 for (i = 0; i < argc; i++){
17 printf("argv[%hhu][%hhu]: %c\n", i, input, *(*(argv+i)+input));
18 }
19 check = true;
20 }
21 }
22 return(0);
23 }

====unix Keyword: Local host====
===Definition===
Local host is the computer you are working on, it is the web address of the computer you are working on, it is a loopback in networking. Although local host can take many forms, it is simply your computer's identifier.
===Demonstration===
If you were to type:
http://localhost
into your web browser, you would be returned with the local web service of your computer.
====unix Keyword: Remote host====
===Definition===
Remote hosts are computers that are not locally accessed, rather are at a distance from where you are. They are still accessible and you can retrieve data from them, but they are a distance away.
===Demonstration===
Remote hosts are usually thought of as network servers or just servers in general, where you would ssh into.
An example of this to me would be:
lab46:~$ ssh root@vm31.student.lab
====unix Keyword: Home directory====
===Definition===
The way I believe a home directory works, is that it can be a supply source for many users, who can separately have their own subsystems of directories but all refer back to a starting point. Even though it can be used by many, each is very different in its own right, different files and directories based on the user.
===Demonstration===
This demonstration will show a Home directory with many users.
lab46:~$ cd /home

====unix Keyword: Current working directory====
===Definition===
A current working directory to me is a folder a person has created and uses for files depending on the purpose of the folder and can access with cd issued commands and can change permissions on files inside of the folder.
===Demonstration===
Here is a current working directory of my own:

====unix Keyword: Text Processing====
===Definition===
The way I think of Text Processing is a technique or device used to edit, and save text into files or from files but can also be used just on plain text as well to change it (for example: to change the color of text).
===Demonstration===
A tool used to process text I've used in the past and would be a good demonstration would be "nano"
lab46:~/src/cprog$ nano prog3.c
#include
int main(){
int v = 17;
int *p1 = NULL;
printf("v is %u \n", v);
p1 = &v;
printf("*p1 is %u\n", *p1);
*p1 = 53;
printf("v is %u\n", v);
printf("*p1 is %u\n", *p1);
v = 7;
printf("v is %u\n", v);
printf("p1 is %u\n", *p1);
return(0);
}
====unix Keyword: Job Control====
===Definition===
To me, Job Control is just another way of saying multitasking, but to multitask efficiently. To control the outcome and resources needed by each job to complete its task and to give the right results along with being able to run them both at the same time.
===Demonstration===
An example of Job Control to me, is using more than one windows in a screen session and having one be a tail to log files, and the other to run a bnetd file for a pvpgn server.
tail: invalid option -- * jpettie@lab46:~$ ssh root@vm31.student.lab
Try `tail --help' for more information. Warning: Permanently added 'vm31.student.lab,10.80.3.31' (RSA) to the list of known hosts.
vm31:/usr/local/var# tail --help root@vm31.student.lab's password:
Usage: tail [OPTION]... [FILE]... Linux vm31 2.6.26-2-xen-686 #1 SMP Wed Sep 21 09:56:47 UTC 2011 i686
Print the last 10 lines of each FILE to standard output.
With more than one FILE, precede each with a header giving the file name. The programs included with the Debian GNU/Linux system are free software;
With no FILE, or when FILE is -, read standard input. the exact distribution terms for each program are described in the
individual files in /usr/share/doc/*/copyright.
Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options too.
--retry keep trying to open a file even if it is Debian GNU/Linux comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY, to the extent
inaccessible when tail starts or if it becomes permitted by applicable law.
inaccessible later; useful when following by name, Last login: Sat Mar 3 02:57:33 2012 from lab46.offbyone.lan
i.e., with --follow=name vm31:~# cd /usr/local
-c, --bytes=N output the last N bytes; alternatively, use +N to vm31:/usr/local# cd sbin
output bytes starting with the Nth of each file vm31:/usr/local/sbin# ls
-f, --follow[={name|descriptor}] bnetd bntrackd d2cs d2dbs
output appended data as the file grows; vm31:/usr/local/sbin#
-f, --follow, and --follow=descriptor are
equivalent
-F same as --follow=name --retry
-n, --lines=N output the last N lines, instead of the last 10;
or use +N to output lines starting with the Nth
--max-unchanged-stats=N
with --follow=name, reopen a FILE which has not
changed size after N (default 5) iterations
to see if it has been unlinked or renamed
(this is the usual case of rotated log files)
--pid=PID with -f, terminate after process ID, PID dies
-q, --quiet, --silent never output headers giving file names
-s, --sleep-interval=S with -f, sleep for approximately S seconds
(default 1.0) between iterations.
-v, --verbose always output headers giving file names
--help display this help and exit
--version output version information and exit
If the first character of N (the number of bytes or lines) is a `+',
print beginning with the Nth item from the start of each file, otherwise,
print the last N items in the file. N may have a multiplier suffix:
b 512, kB 1000, K 1024, MB 1000*1000, M 1024*1024,
GB 1000*1000*1000, G 1024*1024*1024, and so on for T, P, E, Z, Y.
With --follow (-f), tail defaults to following the file descriptor, which
means that even if a tail'ed file is renamed, tail will continue to track
its end. This default behavior is not desirable when you really want to
track the actual name of the file, not the file descriptor (e.g., log
rotation). Use --follow=name in that case. That causes tail to track the
named file by reopening it periodically to see if it has been removed and
recreated by some other program.

====unix Keyword: Regular Expressions====
===Definition===
When I think of Regular Expressions, I tend to think of if statements, comparing two things and seeing if they match, depending on type of course.
===Demonstration===
Here is a while statement to show Regular Expressions:
while (check == false){
some sort of code to execute here
}
=====unix Objective=====
====unix Objective====
Exposure to command-line tools and utilities
===Definition===
In my own thoughts, I would consider the completion of this objective as using tools such as vi to accomplish a task, or even produce a program in c.
===Method===
The method I will use to show the completion of this objective is an example of vi editing of a program.
===Measurement===
Here is an example of vi after adding line numbers and syntax highlighting:
1 #include
2 #include
3 #include
4
5 int main(int argc, char **argv){
6 int input;
7 bool check = false;
8 unsigned char i;
9 while (check == false){
10 printf("Enter a value (0-4):");
11 scanf("%d", &input);
12 if (input > 4 || input < 0){
13 printf("You have entered an incorrect value.\n");
14 check = false;
15 }else{
16 for (i = 0; i < argc; i++){
17 printf("argv[%hhu][%hhu]: %c\n", i, input, *(*(argv+i)+input));
18 }
19 check = true;
20 }
21 }
22 return(0);
23 }
24
===Analysis===
I believe I have showed use of a tool or utility from the command line. I think there is always room to grow, especially when you are running low on time and waited to long to complete your opus. The method seems pretty solid, it shows an example of a working tool. Employing this enhancement will work because the program will run. I believe the course objective is very vital and strong as it stands.
