Printing and Editing files in Unix

[tayyabq8]

Hi,

I am quite new to Unix, I want to know about printing techniques like (Managing Printing Queues, Managing Spoolers and all relevant commands), and I also want to know about the productive use of vi in Unix, Unix help is not helping me a lot for vi.

Any help would be highly appreciated.


Regards,

It's a big topic. I suggest you do a Google search for an intruction to vi, and/or get a decent beginner's book. There's really no point in our writing reams of information here as a tutorial (though others may feel differently), but by all means post back with specifics.

Hi Cen,

Thanks for your reply, I know these are quite big topics, but I am not saying you to provide help to me here, I have just generated this thread to get a beautiful helping link to these topics, I can search on Google, but if any body has some good links with him can he provide me with those.

Regards,

Most of what is there applies to vi, and you are strongly advised to install and use vim instead of vi, as most shops outthere are starting to only use vim.
And Linux only uses it.

I would suggest a book "unix for dummies". It has good generalized information.

What specific flavor are you involved with? Other users may be able to advise better resources.
