The Linux Cookbook

Product Description
The Linux Cookbook, 2nd Edition is your guide to getting the most out of Linux. Organized by general task (such as working with text, managing files, and manipulating graphics), each section contains a series of step-by-step recipes that help you to get your work done quickly and efficiently, most often from the command line. Nearly 50 percent larger than the first edition, this new edition includes hundreds of new recipes as well as new sections on package management; file conversion; multimedia; working with sound files (including OGG and MP3); Vi text editing; advanced text manipulation; and more. Perfect as an introduction to Linux, or as a desktop reference for the seasoned user. Covers the major Linux distributions. “…the next best thing to having your own personal guru.” — UnixReview.com (praise for the first edition)

From the Author
I wrote this book because I want everyone to know how to use free (or “open source”) software, because I think everyone deserves the freedom that comes with it. Linux is becoming ever more powerful and popular, and the free software movement is gaining ground — everyone should know what it is all about, and how they can use it in their lives.

Linux isn’t hard to use, but if you’re used to a completely different way of doing things, you might need someone to show you what to do. When you want to use your computer to do some task, you can break down the task into a “recipe” — and that’s what I’ve done to make it easy to use Linux. And anyone can follow a recipe.

This book aims to give all of the easiest and most effective “recipes” for people who want to use a Linux-based computer system to get things done.

Proprietary software denies you the freedoms that should be your right. You deserve better than that; you deserve the freedom of free software. Learn how to get it with THE LINUX COOKBOOK.
