TITLE: Unix Resource List DOCUMENT NO: U-001
DATE: November 21, 1997 VERSION NO: 8
INTRODUCTION
This document contains brief descriptions of sources of information
that will help you find your way around the computers that run a version
of the Unix operating system. It also contains a list of many of the com-
mands and third-party software available on the systems supported by ITC.
ACCOUNTS
Accounts on Unix machines may be obtained by sending electronic mail
to accounts@virginia.edu or by completing Form 39-B, ``Application for
University Grant Computing Account.'' This form is available at the User
Accounting window at ITC's office in Wilson 234. Alternately, an account
can be created overnight by filling out the form on the web page at
http://www.itc.virginia.edu/accounts
There are a number of computers running the Unix operating system at
UVa, including RS/6000 (AIX) and Sun (Solaris) servers and workstations,
Silicon Graphics (IRIX) and NeXT (Mach) workstations. For information
about Supercomputing capabilities, contact res-consult@Virginia.EDU. The
table below lists the names of ITC's public Unix computers.

Note that some programs that worked on the Sun-4 may not work yet
for Solaris.
CONSULTING
There are ITC Unix consultants available to help users with ques-
tions related to the Unix operating system and with some of the programs
that run on the Unix computers, including the FORTRAN, C, C++ and Pascal
compilers. The ITC Help Desk (924-3731) in Wilson 235 is open from 8:00
a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday-Friday. Student consultants will also be
available in the Small 102 and Thornton E225 Unix labs during the posted
hours (check GWIS, the Grounds-Wide Information System, for hours). The
phone number for the Small Hall lab is 924-1484, and the phone number for
the Thornton A225 lab is 924-6104. Feel free to call or stop by if you
have any questions.
SHORT COURSES
A series of free non-credit short courses are offered at the begin-
ning of each semester and during the summer session to members of the
University community. These courses are offered in the afternoon or
evening and last approximately two hours. A brochure of class descrip-
tions and the schedule is available at the beginning of each semester
from the ITC Help Desk in Wilson 235. The courses are also announced in
ITC's InTerConnection's Newsletter, through on-line news available on all
computer systems and via GWIS, described below.
EDITORS
ITC supports the full-screen editors Pico, JOVE (Jonathan's Own Ver-
sion of Emacs) and Vi (vee-eye, short for visual). The biggest differ-
ence between them is that Vi has two modes, input and command; JOVE and
pico have one mode, meaning that anything that is typed becomes part of
U-001 Unix Resource List 3
your file except the special key sequences that make up commands. Tu-
torials on JOVE, pico, and Vi can be found in the directory
/help/tutorials. You can pick up printed copies from the ITC Help Desk
in Wilson 235 and in the public Unix labs in Small 102 and Thornton E225.
Other documentation for these editors is listed in the ``UVa Documents''
section below.
DOCUMENTATION
On-Line Help
There is a menu-driven help command on the RS/6000 computers which
is a good place to start looking for help. The program gives details on
other sources of help. Just type help at a Unix prompt to start the help
program.
You can send questions via electronic mail to the address
consult@virginia.edu and suggestions to suggest@virginia.edu.
On-line help is also available with the man command on all computers
running Unix. The table below gives examples of the command. (NOTE:
Whenever is used in this document, the Return or Enter key on the
keyboard should be pressed.)
_____________________________________________________
| Command Result |

|____________________________________________________|
GWIS
GWIS (Grounds-Wide Information System, pronounced ``gee-whiz'') pro-
vides access to a wealth of information both from UVa and the world-wide
Internet. To use GWIS, type gwis at the Unix prompt, or xgwis for the X
Windows version. The Unix Documentation produced by User Support of ITC
and listed below is accessible from GWIS.
To read the Unix documents with GWIS, or even do keyword searches of
the documents, invoke GWIS with gwis. Starting at the first menu and
continuing into submenus, select

Books
There are numerous books available from commercial bookstores on the
Unix operating system. ITC has some available for checkout and will be
glad to make recommendations. The following book is available in the
University bookstore:
Grace Todino and John Strang, Learning the Unix Operating Sys-
tem, O'Reilly & Associates, Inc.
SOFTWARE
The following lists show software available on one or more of ITC's
Unix computers. The first list is organized by function; the second list
is organized alphabetically by command or product name. Some of the stan-
dard Unix utilities (e.g., ls, cal, sed) have not been included. For
more information on any software, first consult the on-line help avail-
able with the man command.
See the file /help/unix/supported.software for up-to-date informa-
tion on software availability.
If the program is not available in the default search PATH, the
directory in which it resides is specified. To access the program, put
the directory name in your search PATH, which is a line in your .profile
or .variables.ksh file. For more information on customizing your Unix
environment, see document U-002.
Programs that use the X Window System are listed in the X section,
but are not included in the alphabetical listing, since most are named
x______. There are many X programs, and we are constantly adding new
ones. To check for additional programs, refer to the list in the direc-
tory /X11.5/bin. Older programs that have not been compiled for the
X11.5 release can be found in the directory /X/bin/X11.
The following abbreviations are used to distinguish between the com-
puters whose software we list:
