Unix system programming in OCaml edit / delete
"This document is an introductory course on Unix system programming, with an emphasis on communications between processes. The main novelty of this work is the use of the OCaml language". This is effectively APUE done in OCaml -- which is a really nice way (in my opinion!) to introduce the language.

What became Minix 3, but this site's interesting because it has an archive of the installation media for all the previous releases. I'd like to get Minix 2 running on my AT at some point; it's probably the most useful of the Unix-likes that can run on a 286 owing to decent networking support.

Unicorn Unix Magic Tricks - Thorsten Ball edit / delete
"How would one build something like this? I had no idea." The author then goes on to explore in detail how to build a process farm; a nice overview of the techniques.
Collected advice on Unix CLI Design & Implementation (Alan Coopersmith's Weblog) edit / delete
A Solaris-specific view on Unix tool design. (Not always followed in the past -- I have not-very-fond memories of a Sun disk array where the admin command was "rm6".)
