  • Text Editing in UNIX: an Introduction to Vi and Editing
    Text Editing in UNIX A short introduction to vi, pico, and gedit Copyright 20062009 Stewart Weiss About UNIX editors There are two types of text editors in UNIX: those that run in terminal windows, called text mode editors, and those that are graphical, with menus and mouse pointers. The latter require a windowing system, usually X Windows, to run. If you are remotely logged into UNIX, say through SSH, then you should use a text mode editor. It is possible to use a graphical editor, but it will be much slower to use. I will explain more about that later. 2 CSci 132 Practical UNIX with Perl Text mode editors The three text mode editors of choice in UNIX are vi, emacs, and pico (really nano, to be explained later.) vi is the original editor; it is very fast, easy to use, and available on virtually every UNIX system. The vi commands are the same as those of the sed filter as well as several other common UNIX tools. emacs is a very powerful editor, but it takes more effort to learn how to use it. pico is the easiest editor to learn, and the least powerful. pico was part of the Pine email client; nano is a clone of pico. 3 CSci 132 Practical UNIX with Perl What these slides contain These slides concentrate on vi because it is very fast and always available. Although the set of commands is very cryptic, by learning a small subset of the commands, you can edit text very quickly. What follows is an outline of the basic concepts that define vi.

  • Software Licensing Flexibility Is
    Software licensing flexibility is key - SD Times file:///Users/mq/Desktop/Software licensing flexibility is key ... sdtimes.com Software licensing flexibility is key - SD Times Lisa Morgan Today’s businesses run on software, but the ways they want to license it are changing. To keep pace with end users’ expectations and to stay competitive, software companies are embracing more types of licensing models, including perpetual, subscription, pay-per-use, hybrid and others. On-premise licenses are being supplemented with or replaced by SaaS alternatives, and more developers are selling apps via app stores. Meanwhile, intelligent device manufacturers are putting more 1 von 3 08.10.15 14:28 Software licensing flexibility is key - SD Times file:///Users/mq/Desktop/Software licensing flexibility is key ... emphasis on software because it helps them differentiate their products and take advantage of new revenue opportunities. As technology evolves and as user expectations continue to change, software developers and intelligent device manufacturers need reliable and flexible means of protecting, monetizing and monitoring the use of their intellectual property. (Related: The big business of software licensing) “We’re noticing a steady shift away from the traditional models. What’s still top of mind is how you get from a perpetual license to a subscription-type model,” said Jon Gillespie-Brown, CEO of Nalpeiron. “Quite a few people say they like what Adobe did with Creative Suite, [not realizing] what it took to do that, but in general people want to know how they can transform their businesses.” Intelligent device manufacturers are changing their business models too.
