About the Utilities menu

This menu gives you quick access to information about some of the general purpose utilities that are provided as standard by UNIX.

Knowing about a utility, what it does and how it can be combined with other utilities enables you to construct your own utilities for a specific task. It introduces you to utilities for:

• assisting program development
• editing text
• manipulating information
• communicating with other users

If you need to manipulate information held in files you should look at the items in this menu.
