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.

Store Description

All of these listed items are being sold out of a private collection. Some of these are books collected in my lifetime but most are books I inherited and have grown up with since childhood. Large book collections can be a blessing and a curse. While they can be a source of delight, fascination, learning and sentiment, they can also be very cumbersome and difficult to maintain. It's time to lighten the load a little and share this collection with the rest of the book loving world.
