I think I first started using UNIX around 1986. Always thought that DOS was a poor mans rip off of UNIX. Needless say this emulator is a major treat. I actually used to play "Hunt the Wumpus" with a buddy of mine way back when. As for "should obsolete tools be removed" no! Everything in UNIX is built upon something else. You could and still can build the most useful shell scripts to support whatever task. Treat UNIX commands like any computer programming langaue commands and you have tools. Just a week ago I'm using dd to convert old IBM mainframe from "EBCDIC" to "ASCII" data. Followed that up by writing some C language code to process packed decimal data. All in All *NIX is the most useful command line platform there is! Website scraping anyone, start with "wget". Bye now. |
