[ProgSoc] Questions...



1. Okay, this will seem like a crazy question, and almost bordering on the
edge of insane... but could someone briefly explain the differences
between Linux and Unix (apart from the fact that one of them was created
by a guy so vain he named it after himself)

2. Would anyone know where I could find a general text doc containing
general man definitions and syntax for a recent version of Unix? Being one
who is often in a hurry, I don't have the time to regularly type "man
command" at the prompt, nor flip through TFUM nor using an online version
of the manual...

3. I need a recommendation for a suitable comp language to learn as my
next step. I'm heading towards web and general PC applications and already
have Unix and PERL under my thumb, but am stuck with choosing between C++,
Delphi, Java and VB6... any suggestions...?
