MAC OS X IN A NUTSHELL: A DESKTOP QUICK REFERENCE

Like other books in the popular Nutshell series, this one is aimed at powerusers and provides very concise descriptions of topics ranging from desktop basics to using the free developer tools that ship with Mac OS X (through 10.2 a.k.a. "Jaguar") to Unix terminals and shell programming. Other topics include web publishing with Darwin, Apache, MySQL, and PHP/Perl/Python (DAMP); using CVS, the concurrent versions system, to manage changes to project files; running the X Window System; and text editing with vi and Emacs. Appendices include a 225-page Unix command reference which lists 289 commands with syntax, a description, and a list of available options.
