Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide
This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

i am looking for a QR image generator app for CentOS. i need to create batches of images (QR codes) in sets of 1000. i will have a list of numbers in a file and i need to send the app every number and app creates a QR code of set size in a image format (jpg, png, bmp, gif).
I'm running CentOS 6 and just installed it from the epel repository which has version 3.4.2. Seems to work fine with a quick test although there are known bugs as described in the change logs. qrencode generates a png, if you need the other formats then you can create them using convert which is part of imagemagick.
You should be able to compile it from source and you can write a script to generate batches of qrcodes.

i tried qrencode install on my centOS 6.8 and configure keeps failing libpng check. not sure why, all that stuff is installed.
cli for the utility has -t EPS option. that works for me, but PNG is easier for printer person.
i installed from source, but my issue was PKG_CONFIG_PATH was not a env variable. libpng.pc is in /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig and configure doesnt look here by default !!
all fixed now. now i can just read a line from file and send it to the qr binary via script.
