ReviewLinux.Com: Parted Magic 1.8 USB CD Utility Tool

07/27/2007  
Relevance: 6.01
I am always looking for great Linux utility tools that can help me manage my PC. Parted Magic 1.8 is one of them.... Great bootable CD plus one is able to place it on a USB key. A must utility for every PC user! Personally I have always used GParted for all my partitioning needs. GParted alone is a great tool. What interested me about Parted Magic was that it included Gparted plus a few more excellent utilities that I think I could find very useful.

Options Parsing and Keywords

10/18/2007  
Relevance: 5.46
The traditional Unix utility uses options and arguments to parse command line parms that dictate how the utility should work. Long options is one way to make a utility's usage somewhat natural; for example: util --version. Some utilities use keywords and command/sub-command syntax. It is possible to combine the two without causing too much confusion.
