So, as part of a college course I'm taking, all the programming
assignments have to run on the Unix machines there. I'm not
going to have enough time to develop the assignments on them,
so I'm going to need to move all my work from DOS to Unix. Is
that going to be hard? What exactly is involved (I've never
used Unix). I've got some books on Unix itself, but they
don't deal with programming and things like that. Will they
read DOS disks so I can transfer my programs? Is there
any info around about beginning Unix programming? I assume
the actual programs will be easy to transfer (they're in
DJGPP with all standard stuff), but it's the actaul details
I'm worried about. Thx
