comment Unix and Linux differences?
@MarkM-- SUS!=UNIX unless you decide to define SUS==UNIX. Which is okay. System 7 was UNIX, but it would not pass SUS... there are still System 7 boxes in existence. I started with system 7 a long time ago.... So, my definition does not match yours.

comment Unix and Linux differences?
UNIX is not one thing, it is system V, BSD, etc. There isn't a source for what you want, probably because it is not a very good qustion. Read Stevens 'Advanced Programming in the UNIX Environment' and you will see what I mean. Linux is UNIX.
