At present, most of the office and personal computers use Windows system. However, for Internet technicians, Linux has become an operating system that technicians must understand. The Linux operating system has always been mainly used on the server side, but with the iterative update of the Linux version, many Linux systems have been able to achieve a graphical interface. Gradually began to be used in the field of personal computers. Here, we should pay attention to the difference between Linux and Windows when we learn Linux again.

1. Linux is strictly case-sensitive

When you use the Windows system, whether in uppercase or lowercase, the system will default to the same file, so it will prompt folder naming conflicts, while Linux will not, in Linux, it is strictly case-sensitive, including file and directory names, commands, command options, configuration file setting options, and so on.

2. Windows program can not be directly applied to Linux system.

Windows and Linux do not have the same system in nature. Applications in different operating systems need to develop corresponding application versions separately. The software between different systems can not be universal, there are advantages and disadvantages, the disadvantage is that for software developers, they need to develop corresponding software for different systems, while many enterprises only aim at Windows version research and development, while Linux version is relatively imperfect. The advantage is that the virus Trojan on Windows is ineffective to the Linux system.

3. Linux does not distinguish file types by extension

Windows relies on extensions to distinguish file types, for example, ".txt" is a text file, ".exe" is an execution file, ".ini" is a configuration file, ".mp4" is a small movie, and so on. On the other hand, the Linux system determines the file type by permission tags. Its file types are also relatively few, and the common file types are ordinary files, linked files, block device files, character device files and so on.

In the process of continuous iterative development of Linux operating system, its visual graphical interface has been gradually accepted by everyone. At the same time, Linux operating system has gradually begun to emerge in the field of personal computer applications. Due to the open source features of Linux, there are many kinds of Linux hairstyle versions at present, and the more familiar versions are RedHat and Ubuntu. Which version to use in the work needs to be determined according to the needs of the enterprise and the specific application areas.
