Mozilla Vs. Firefox
|
For those who are unclear on the differences between the Mozilla package (Netscape is also comparable to Mozilla except they're two different companies) and Firefox / Thunderbird, here it is:
- Mozilla is a complete package meaning it comes with email, browser, address book, newsgroup, and chat applications integrated.
- FireFox is a stand-alone browser application. It doesn't have email built-in. There is a chatzilla extension available.
- Thunderbird is the stand-alone email application. It doesn't have a browser built-in. The address book is included.
- If you use Mozilla for email and click on a link within an email, it will open them in Mozilla not FireFox even when FireFox is the default browser.
- The applications are similar, yet different. The look and feel is different. It requires experiencing it for yourself to understand this.
- Commands and features are not identical. For instance, Mozilla has F9 to open the sidebar with search, history, bookmarks, etc. whereas FireFox only opens Bookmarks and History in the sidepanel via Ctrl+B and Ctrl+H respectively. There are a few extensions to do more with this.
- FireFox has fewer options because it doesn't have other applications integrated with it, which can make it easier to modify.
At this point, Mozilla is tapering off while Mozilla.org moves forward with its brightest star, Firefox.

Intro To Unix Shells
A UNIX Shell is in simplest terms, a command line interpreter, that takes the users input and gives it to the Kernel. If you are familiar with DOS, you will remember the 'command.com' that file takes the users information and passes it to the operating system in a way it can be understood by the system. With DOS you only had one type of shell, but with UNIX you have a variety, each with their own abilities, pluses and minuses.Keep in mind as you read about these shells, that though they may have major differences when they were created, that they have been updated and many features that were once only available in a single shell, may be available in other shells.
