Depends on what you mean by a "gnu" file, since utilities are common across Unix platforms including HPUX. Need more information.
GNU is a Unix-like computer operating system developed by the GNU Project. GNU is a recursive acronym for "GNU's NOT UNIX".
GNU is an abbreviation of "GNU's Not Unix"
GNU's Not Unix
It is an abbreviation of "GNU's not unix!"
GNU is a recursive acronym for "GNU's not Unix!" This name was chosen because GNU's design is Unix-like, but differs from Unix by being free software and containing no Unix code.It could also mean Gujarat National University.
GNU is a what is known as a recursive acronym, meaning an acronym that refers back to itself. GNU is a computer operating system similar to the Unix operating system; the acronym stands for "GNU's Not Unix".
GNU is an operating system composed of free software. This operating system also has an icon which is a gnu,wildebeest head.GUJARAT NATIONAL UNIVERSITYGNU definition from gnu.org:The GNU Project was launched in 1984 to develop a complete Unix-like operating system which is free software: the GNU operating system.after some research i came to know GNU acronym is "GNU's not Unix" here GNU stands for "Genuinely Not Unix" Operating System.
The GNU Make project creates Linux and Unix software by compiling code automatically that the user has written. When the user writes a program, they may use GNU Make to create a "makefile", and this essentially allows Make to build and install the program from that data. GNU Make is not limited to any particular language. Basically, GNU Make is a tool that controls the generation of executable files (an executable file is a file that causes a computer to perform tasks according to encoded instructions) and other non-source files for a program from the program's source files.
GNU/Linux is a 'Unix-like' operating system because it was based on Unix, and is similar in many ways.
The accronym "GNU" stands for Gnu Is not Unix. Technically speaking, it's "GNU/Linux" because Linux is the kernel, not the whole thing, we just shorten it to Linux (I do this myself, but I do know that Linux is just the kernel). It is made up of the Linux kernel and several GNU programs (try typing a basic command into a terminal with --help, chances are you could easily find one that says GNU somewhere at the bottom).
A wildebeest is a type of antelope found in Africa, whereas a gnu (short for "gnu's new unix") is a Unix-like operating system developed by the Free Software Foundation. The term "gnu" refers to both the animal and the operating system, but they are unrelated in terms of their nature and characteristics.
GNU/Linux, and the BSD descendants follow design and operation principles largely similar to UNIX.
