Description
Unix in Easy Steps by Mike McGrath provides a comprehensive introduction to using the BASH shell interpreter, the default shell for many popular operating systems. This book offers step-by-step guidance on how to navigate and manipulate files, as well as advanced features such as command history, editing, and environment customisation. Through clear examples and colourised source code, you'll learn how to employ BASH's powerful programming abilities, including flow control, command switches, input/output, job control, and program debugging. With this knowledge, you can create your own executable programs by copying the book's examples. Suitable for beginners and those looking to expand their computer system knowledge, Unix in Easy Steps is an easy-to-follow guide that will help you get the most from any Unix-based operating system.
