| The UNIX Philosophy Mike Gancarz: | |
| In 1994 Mike Gancarz (a member of the team that designed the X Window System), drew on his own experience with Unix, as well as discussions with fellow programmers and people in other fields who depended on Unix, to produce The UNIX Philosophy which sums it up in 9 paramount precepts: | |
| Small is beautiful. | |
| Make each program do one thing well. | |
| Build a prototype as soon as possible. | |
| Choose portability over efficiency. | |
| Store data in flat text files. | |
| Use software leverage to your advantage. | |
| Use shell scripts to increase leverage and portability. | |
| Avoid captive user interfaces. | |
| Make every program a filter. |
