0 kjordan2001 Posted September 17, 2004 Share Posted September 17, 2004 You can use C/C++. Also, C# is in its beginnings on *nix. There's also Python, Perl, and a number of other languages. You can also write bash scripts, csh scripts, or any other type of shell scripts. Your question is very vague. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 n3wt Posted September 17, 2004 Share Posted September 17, 2004 UNIX is an OS, your question is akin to asking, "What is Windows programming like?" You can code anything in UNIX, so...code away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 neowin_hipster Posted September 18, 2004 Share Posted September 18, 2004 i suggest using whitespace or fsckfsck. those are the two best languages to code in for unix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
