learning bash, where to get started?
I'm wanting to start learning bash scripting, and I'm looking for a good place to start. Wondered if anyone has any good experience with a particular or website? I have some experience with python, but that's the extent of my programming/scripting knowledge.
And everything I find online seems to call itself a Unix scripting book/guide/whatever. Is Unix bash identical to Linux bash? |
For beginners: http://linuxcommand.org/index.php
More advanced: http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/ Bash is the same as Bash, regardless of the underlying OS. Just keep in mind that programs that you run from bash (for example the find command) may have differences between the platforms. |

By far the best BASH guide I know of.
'Teach Yourself Shell Programming in 24 Hours' The majority of it is comprehensive and the rest is worth paraphrasing yourself. It's not going to be the only bash reference you need but is defiantly worth reading. It might be available to view on html files from the publishers site or you can buy the book.

Afterwards also the man page of bash, awk and sed can be checked as it’s easier to understand them, when you have already some foundation. |
