Hi guys,
could you please list Some helpful resources to get me
started on shell commands and programming!
Much appritiated!
Deepak: Here are some:
1. If you have money and access to it, I recommend the book "UNIX Shells By
Example" by Ellie Quigley (Prentice-Hall is the publisher). The text and
examples are solid; the index is worse than worthless (the third edition
index refers to pages in the second or earlier edition).
2. Assuming you have a default installation to begin, 'man bash' is your
friend. The man pages tell you nearly everything you need, although in a
very terse way.
3. Google will doubtless provide a wealth of examples, tutorials, and the
like.
one example which I have as a favourite in my work computer is
http://www.shelldorado.com/ - unfortunately my work computer is powered
(partly) by windoze, the other part being Novell which nowadays uses linux.
4. Look inside: You will find a wide variety of interesting scripts all
over your installation if you look.
Erik
