Advanced Bash Scripting Guide 5.3 (Stable branch) |
|
|
The Advanced Bash Scripting Guide is both a reference and a tutorial on shell scripting. This comprehensive book (the equivalent of 900+ print pages) covers almost every aspect of shell scripting. It contains 343 profusely commented illustrative examples, a number of tables, and a cross-linked index/glossary. Not just a shell scripting tutorial, this book also provides an introduction to basic programming techniques, such as sorting and recursion. It is well suited for either individual study or classroom use. It covers Bash, up to and including version 3.2x.

Changes:
This can be considered a "word games update."
Recreational scripts were added, such as an almost
full-featured Perquacky clone script, a script
that does the "Petals Around the Rose" puzzle, and
a crossword puzzle solver script. There is also
the usual batch of bugfixes and other new
material.
