Re: Any good SAS Unix books

Dear SAS-L-ers,

Obviously weary of murder mysteries, the prolific Toby Dunn posted the
following question:

Toby, I found the SAS Companion to Unix Environments to be a great basic
book on this topic. I own a Version 7 edition, but see that there is an
updated copy for Version 9.1:

Best of luck to you in your endeavor to read up on how SAS interacts on the
most anything-goes computing platform that you are ever liable to run a
program on!


I hope that this suggestion proves helpful now, and in the future!

Does this book is not into the sasonlinedoc ?? I see with the link the title
is also available online and this book will be printed only on demand. On
the sasonlinedocv8, there is the unix companion (and mvs, windows...). I
believe it's the same.
