very true it is the icing on top of every UN*X rice :)

Why the * in Unix? Sorry if I am naive ๐Ÿ™ƒ

Linux is technically not Unix

Right, but what would replace the * in that case?

Unix or Un?x

Or am I totally off course here ๐Ÿค”

Un*x is just another way of saying Unix-like, sometimes its refereed to as *nix

this Wikipedia page talks about it https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix-like
