Hello,
I am interested in suggestions of what book(s) would be good for me in my continuing quest to learn *NIX. However, unline most people, i am not a complete nubie. I don't need 50 pages explain what a terminal shell is or how *NIX handles multiple user file permissions.

In other works, i'm looking for a book that explains stuff allot more indepth -- but at the same time in a non-geekly language. For example, i would to know more about exactly what all the diferent kinds of kill signals are and how their work (i've allready read the man kill pages). I'd like to know more about Regular Explression better -- without reading a whole book on it.

Anyone have any suggestions of a suitable book or web site that goes further into *NIX?

Thanks
Death To Extremists!

both "unix power tools" & "unix in a nutshell" are excellent reference books for the intermediate level reader; most of the o'reilly books are pretty good (provided you don't need darwin specific information).
