I gave a lecture on Unix basics this past friday in building 70. Attendance was about 20, which was far more than I expected. It was open to anyone who wanted to attend.

The slides can be found in the link below. They are html-based, and may require you to use a non-sucky browser to view them. I have not tested if browsers other than Firefox work, but I have heard that Opera and Safari choke on it. I'll fix that later.

Unix Basics slides

If you've never used my slide tool before, here's how:

• arrow keys (left/right) navigate back/forward
• spacebar goes forward
• 't' will toggle showing of the slide list.
