New HumbleBundle UNIX Book Bundle -- Help improve your Slackware scripts
 

I just got the email that HumbleBundle came out with a new Book Bundle. It has a number of quality titles that you can purchase at different tiers, the most expensive being $15.

This can help you understand more of the innards of Slackware and Linux in general. There's books on sed and awk, bash, shell scripting, emacs, vi, and even system administration, dns, TCP/IP, and more.

As far as I know, this is not limited to the US, although, you might need to pay in US dollars and have it converted to your own currency.

Pay $1 or more

• Unix in a Nutshell, 4th Edition
• sed & awk, 2nd Edition
• lex and yacc, 2nd Edition
• Learning the bash Shell, 3rd Edition
• Linux Pocket Guide, 3rd Edition

Pay $8 or more

• bash Cookbook
• Classic Shell Scripting
• Learning GNU Emacs, 3rd Edition
• Unix Power Tools
• Learning the vi and Vim Editors, 7th Edition
• Bash Pocket Reference, 2nd Edition
• Learning Unix for OS X, 2nd Edition

Pay $15 or more

• Essential System Administration, 3rd Edition
• TCP/IP Network Administration, 3rd Edition
• DNS and BIND, 5th Edition
• Network Troubleshooting Tools

This is of course a must-buy.

Also, remember that Humble Bundle sales contribute a lot of the EFF's funding.

By default (at least in the few browsers I checked -- may be location based), the charity contribution goes to Code for America for this one, but you can change it to a number of different charities, including the EFF (but you have to search for Electronic Frontier Foundation, because searching for EFF doesn't find it).

Thanks for the link, bassmadrigal! :)

Worked in the UK for me. Thank you.

Thanks bassmadrigal !

Even though I already own the dead-tree version of most of these books and several of the eBooks, this is a GREAT DEAL and a nice addition to my calibre-2.71.0-x86_64-1alien library !

What a treat. Just what I need to go along with some late night studying.

Thanks from me as well. That was an offer that could not be missed!
