  • Description
    Shell scripting skills never go out of style. It's the shell that unlocks the real potential of Unix. Shell scripting is essential for Unix users and system administrators-a way to quickly harness and customize the full power of any Unix system. With shell scripts, you can combine the fundamental Unix text and file processing commands to crunch data and automate repetitive tasks. But beneath this simple promise lies a treacherous ocean of variations in Unix commands and standards. Classic Shell Scripting is written to help you reliably navigate these tricky waters. Writing shell scripts requires more than just a knowledge of the shell language, it also requires familiarity with the individual Unix programs: why each one is there, how to use them by themselves, and in combination with the other programs. The authors are intimately familiar with the tips and tricks that can be used to create excellent scripts, as well as the traps that can make your best effort a bad shell script. With Classic Shell Scripting you'll avoid hours of wasted effort. You'll learn not only write useful shell scripts, but how to do it properly and portably.The ability to program and customize the shell quickly, reliably, and portably to get the best out of any individual system is an important skill for anyone operating and maintaining Unix or Linux systems. Classic Shell Scripting gives you everything you need to master these essential skills.

    Best book on Shell scripting

    this is one of the few best books on shell scripting, having taught the scripting in a precise broader picture covering the Unix OS itself rather than a receipe quick fix kind. For the ppl who're from non -IT background, this book is a treasure trove.

    The book's edition is of 2005 and not of 2011 as mentioned.

    Wonderful Content

    Though the price for this book varies at different resources on the internet, but none the less, this book is full of contents in which one is always interested in.
    The best thing about the Layout of the book is the usage of the Commands in the Tabular format, so that it's easy to keep track of them, while searching them in future. Everything is neatly described.
    If I can give numbers to this out of 10, then my choice is 8, minus two just for the high price it has.
