From: Donald L. Greer, Jr. <dgreer> To: academy-docs Subject: Bad wording in Book 1, Chapt. 5, Excersize 1 Date: Wed, 08 Jun 2005 16:09:14 -0500 On the first excersize in Chpt. 5, WB 1, your state that the deliverable is a "Suspended" ls -R /. I believe that you should say "Stopped", as the "T" in the PS report stands for "Stopped" (or Traced, but we won't go there :^). Don
hit one of your author's sore spots... stopped to me could easily imply stopped for good, which is not the case, so I tend to emphasize suspended. that being said, official Unix term is stopped, so I tweaked to include that as well. (I would also change "Running" to "Runnable", but we won't go there...)
