Start w/ History of Unix...

 - Unix started a Bell Labs, the US, in 1960s
 - Mac OS X, which based on BSD which is from Berkley, CA 1977
 - Linux, which is from a guy named Linux Torvalds in Finland 1991
 - but...what made BSD possible and Linux possible, was the work of Richard Staltzman at MIT who create a set of programs and libraries called GNU. 1983
 - but more importantly Staltzman introduce the idea of free and open software, GNU licience
 - this is contrary to the idea of propriatiary software like adobe design software, which you can not read or change the source code.

Most all software today still uses at least pieces of these early libraries and programs, but today wil will investigate them on a much lower level, and for fun in the context of emoji.

 - There is a window into this lower level of software via a program called the Terminal on most computers.
