i'm really getting into shell scripting, any good resources I should know about it?
i'm a beginner but have background in programming though.
@mdhughes @tootbrute as someone who also code in safer languages more often that I script, this guide is really handy:
@mdhughes oh lovely. I love books. I remember learning about freebsd with a book like this
@sohkamyung awesome. Yes using bash scripting.
@tootbrute I think the resources other people pointed out are more useful. But when you get through them, this will probably still be an eye opening read: https://dwheeler.com/essays/filenames-in-shell.html
@tootbrute The classic: https://www.pearson.com/us/higher-education/program/Kochan-Shell-Programming-in-Unix-Linux-and-OS-X-The-Fourth-Edition-of-Unix-Shell-Programming-4th-Edition/PGM334337.html
I learned with the first edition of this.
