[Piercarlo Grandi waxes eloquent about people whose views are tightly
channeled into the UNIX mould]
UNIX introduced a wonderfully clean and simple program interface that has
been widely (and often poorly) imitated. Unfortunately, too many fans of this
interface confuse it with the common implementations. They're like the Zen
students who, when the master points at the moon, continue to stare at his
finger.
