\section{Purpose and Conventions}

We of the Student Information Processing Board (SIPB) have compiled this
document to provide a catalog of the less-publicized commands and
capabilities of the Athena system for people who have learned the basics
of Unix.  If you are a complete newcomer to the system, we suggest that
you begin with the Project Athena documents {\bf Welcome to Athena},
{\bf Managing Your Athena Account} and {\bf Working on Athena} (free).
Some information contained in earlier versions of this {\em Guide} is
now covered by {\bf More Unix: The C Shell}.  These documents are
available at Graphic Arts in the basement of building 11 or the Student
Center.

File names and ``meta-names'' throughout this document are indicated
in {\it italics}.  Program names, commands to be typed to the shell,
and text that is returned by a command are in {\tt typewriter text}.
Commands for GNU Emacs and other interactive programs are in {\sl
slanted text}.  Document names are in {\bf boldface}.

Control characters are represented by the prefix ``C-'' preceding a
letter: {\tt C-c} is Control-c.  Control characters are typed by
holding down the key labeled ``CTRL'' and pressing the letter
following the C- (in this case, ``c'').  Meta characters are
represented by the prefix ``M-'' preceding a letter: {\tt M-x}.  Meta
characters are entered by holding down the ``Compose Character'' key
(on the DEC workstations) or the ``ALT'' key (on the IBM workstations)
while pressing the key following the M- (in this case, ``x'').
Control-meta characters are represented by the prefix ``C-M-''
preceding a letter: {\tt C-M-c} is Control-meta-c.  They are typed by
holding down both the control and meta (Compose Character or ALT) keys
while pressing the key following the C-M- (in this case, ``c'').

Confusion abounds!
