The Samba software package that comes with many Linux distributions (or can be easily installed
if it doesn??™t) contains protocols and utilities for sharing files and printers among Windows and
OS/2 operating systems. It uses SMB protocols that are included with all Microsoft Windows systems
and therefore provides a convenient method of sharing resources on LANs containing many
Windows systems.

You can slice and dice the topic of Linux programming environments
and interfaces in a variety of ways. For example, a list of the programming
languages known to have compilers that target or run
on Linux easily runs to three single-spaced, typewritten pages. You could
also examine the literally hundreds of programming libraries that exist for
Linux. Alternatively, you can organize the discussion by dividing everything
into three categories: graphically oriented interfaces, command-line interfaces,
and other environments.
To some readers, a ???programming environment??? means a graphical, pointand-
click integrated development environment (IDE) like that provided by
Borland??™s Kylix or IBM??™s Eclipse.
