Introduction

I’ve always wanted to know more than just the command line basics that we used to study in university. I wanted to explore more in Linux and aquire the skills of shell scripting since I’m interested in embedded systems and want to make my own build systems and set a professional environment for myself. Then eventually after searching for a gentle source, I found my way to this elegant and powerful book “The Unix Workbench”. It’s a very good start if you want to grasp the concepts of shell scripting quickly and get your hands dirty on many useful and practical examples.

Chapter 3: Command Line Basics
