Résumé

Linux eTudes is written for beginners and intermediate-level computer users. It is a collection of techniques intended to enhance the skill set of the Linux user. Upon completion of these études the Linux user will be familiarized with how to create strategic Linux applications.

The author has not assumed deep knowledge of computing or programming. Essential prerequisites include the ability to turn on a computer, launch Linux, and open the command line. From this point the ability to follow directions is all that is needed.

Linux is used to run Web servers and to support local area networks (LAN), but it can be used to do other practical office and home applications. It is very flexible and can be customized and tweaked to meet the needs of almost any enduser. Once the reader becomes comfortable with the process of creating applications, they will realize that each étude enhanced as they choose.

Through these études the reader will learn to make a Linux system faster and easier. Computer functions can be automated so that on boot, the system takes over time-consuming and tedious chores.
