From the Author

UNIX Shell is a power tool for programmers
I learned UNIX and Shell at Bell Labs in the 1970s. I found it was a rapid prototyping tool, a personal assistant, and a way to be more productive. The power of Shell is the ability to try out ideas quickly, rapidly converging on solutions. Then you can decide whether to code it in another language or just leave it in shell. This book focuses on applied shell programming, not specific tools like grep or awk, but how to compose programming tools and application software quickly and easily. Discover the Power of Unix Shell.
