Professional and Applied Computing (R0) - Shell Scripting Recipes

Productinformatie

Filled with over 150 essential, practical recipes that empower Unix users to regain lost time

spent creating and testing shell scripts. The majority of scripts included are POSIX-compliant

and supported by many of the major shell variants, including Bash, ksh, and sh.

Each real-world example recipe follows the same problem-solution structure, meaning

cross-referencing is easy and fast. Recipe topics include file conversion (DOS, UNIX, and

Mac), system administration, resource monitoring, filename management, complex date

calculations, screen control capabilities, and much more.

Completely updated for this second edition and taking all the changes of the past ten

years into account, every recipe in this book is now relevant for a modern audience. Authors

Chris Johnson’s and Jayant Varma’s code is clear, direct, and applicable. Add this excellent
