Review: "Learning the bash Shell, Second Edition, is the definitive guide to bash, the Free Software Foundation's "Bourne Again Shell." It's a freely available replacement for the popular UNIX Bourne shell, and is also the shell of choice for Linux users around the world." "You'll find this guide valuable whether you're interested in bash as a user interface or for its powerful programming capabilities. It will teach you how to use bash's advanced command-line features, like command history, command-line editing, and command completion." "This book also introduces shell programming, a skill no UNIX or Linux user should be without. The book demonstrates what you can do with bash's programming features. You'll learn about flow control, signal handling, and command-line processing and I/O. There is also a chapter on debugging your bash programs." "Finally, Learning the bash Shell, Second Edition, shows you how to acquire, install, configure, and customize bash, and gives advice to system administrators managing bash for their user community."--Jacket
