Hello,

If you do a search in Google you come up with a lot of answers when you type in:
Code:
linux shell scripting
Here are several good ones to start learning.

Beginners scripting guide
Bash Beginners Guide

and for later one after a good portion of studying:
Advanced Bash scripting guide


Kind regards,

Eric

In your other thread, I asked you what is "self-scripting"? I'll guess that it means writing a script in the language of the shell---eg BASH

More generally, a scripting language is one that is not compiled, but interprets and executes each commands as it appears in the script. Examples include Python, Perl, and PHP.

Best: Get a book and start writing scripts---eg the Bash Guide for Beginners at http://tldp.org
Easy: If you want to become really good at scripting for system administration, "easy" is not a word that would occur to me. More generally, things really worth doing are seldom easy.
