This appendix is a brief guide to macOS features that differ from those of Linux. See Chapter 1 for a history of UNIX, Linux, and macOS.
The material here is based on the operating system that was called Mac OS X in 2001–2012, OS X in 2012–2016, and macOS today. This appendix will use macOS throughout.
