A menu driven, user friendly interface to UNIX

Author

Mary Hayward

Abstract

An interface was developed to provide an environment where an inexperienced UMX user can work effectively within the UNIX operating system. A by-product of the interface results in the user learning a subset of com monly used UNIX commands. The interface incorporates a menu structure which presents the available UNIX functions to the user. When the user selects a function, the inter face prompts him for the required arguments, echos the corresponding UNIX command and executes the command.
