The Linux Command Line will take you from your first
terminal keystrokes to writing full programs in the latest
version of bash, the most popular Linux shell.
The second edition of this worldwide best seller
includes coverage of bash 4.x features like new re-
direction operators and shell expansions. An updated
shell scripting section discusses modern, robust shell
scripting practices and ways of avoiding common
types of potentially dangerous failures.
As with the first edition, you’ll learn timeless command
line skills like file navigation, environment configuration,
command chaining, and pattern matching with regular
expressions. You’ll even explore the philosophy behind
the many command line tools and the rich heritage that
your Linux machine inherits from Unix supercomputers
of yore—all handed down by generations of mouse-
shunning gurus.
As you work through the book’s short, easily digestible
chapters, you’ll learn how to:
• Create and delete files, directories, and symlinks

• Administer your system, from networking and
package installation to process management
• Use standard input and output, redirection, and
pipelines
• Edit files with vi, the world’s most popular text editor
• Write shell scripts to automate common or boring tasks
• Slice and dice text files with cut, paste, grep, patch,
and sed
Once you’ve overcome your initial “shell shock,” you’ll
find that the command line is a natural and expressive
way to communicate with your computer.
