This book concentrates on the standard UNIX shell called the Bourne shell. When Dennis Ritche and Ken Thompson were developing much of UNIX in the early 1970s, they used a very simple shell. The first real shell, written by Stephen Bourne, appeared in the mid 1970s. The original Bourne shell has changed slightly over the years; some features were added and others were removed, but its syntax and its resulting power have remained the same.The most attractive feature of the shell is that it enables you to create scripts. Scripts are files that contain a list of commands you want to run. Because every script is contained in a file and every file has a name, scripts enable you to combine existing programs to create completely new programs that solve your problems. This book teaches you how to create, execute, modify, and debug shell scripts quickly and easily. After you get used to writing scripts, you will find yourself solving more and more problems with them.
