Understanding Linux can be difficult， but this book makes it a piece of cake！ I really love the entire script and details on using Linux， from start to finish are included。 The most recent edition and full of so many details that if a beginner has no idea how to set it up or just start using the program， this book is a true hero！I love the setup of the program， makes it easy to begin and continue learning about Linux and how to use it correctly。 The way to troubleshoot issues， use the terminal f Understanding Linux can be difficult， but this book makes it a piece of cake！ I really love the entire script and details on using Linux， from start to finish are included。 The most recent edition and full of so many details that if a beginner has no idea how to set it up or just start using the program， this book is a true hero！I love the setup of the program， makes it easy to begin and continue learning about Linux and how to use it correctly。 The way to troubleshoot issues， use the terminal for scripting and setting up other programs within the terminal or just on the operation system， well that is all included too！ It keeps me from searching online for the information I need。 The index is perfect for finding specific things which might have been forgotten or need a quick remembrance of what it does or how to use it and set it up。 Plus， the context allows you to take each chapter and work out the exercises that end them to recall and practice what is going on and how to actually work with these functions of Linux。It's basically the best way to understand a program of any type！ This bible to me is the golden book for Linux， plus the updated version。 It's got so much covered and new things that the recent don't provide。 I love trying new programs and sometimes it's hard to get used to something new。 However， having this book beside my computer， well it isn't a problem anymore！ Lastly， I'd like to say that if I ever needed a way to recover my lost memory on Linux and its wonderful subparts， well this book is here and is able to remind me of what I need or should know when using it。 Nothing but a great way to have everything from the program right in front of you without having to search for it through many other books or online services。 Totally an awesome guide！"I have been given a free copy of Linux Command Line and Shell Scripting Bible， 4th Ed。 in exchange for my honest opinion" 。。。more

Blum and Bresenham provide a long look at bash， but fail to even mention a shell that I use every day alongside bash: tcsh。 For a C and C++ programmer tcsh is a useful CLI， even when that programmer uses bash for shell programs。 A good book that covers both bash and tcsh in detail， and clearly identifies the differences， is Mark Sobell's 4th edition of A Practical Guide to Linux。 For me tcsh is a great CLI， even though it's not a good programming language。 tcsh is what I use for the command line Blum and Bresenham provide a long look at bash， but fail to even mention a shell that I use every day alongside bash: tcsh。 For a C and C++ programmer tcsh is a useful CLI， even when that programmer uses bash for shell programs。 A good book that covers both bash and tcsh in detail， and clearly identifies the differences， is Mark Sobell's 4th edition of A Practical Guide to Linux。 For me tcsh is a great CLI， even though it's not a good programming language。 tcsh is what I use for the command line。 bash is what I use for shell programming。 Completely ignoring that fact and focusing solely on bash and bash derivatives means this is not a Bible， it's just another bash book。 For a book that is more comprehensive about what can be done from the command line， try Sobel。 。。。more

This really is the command line Bible！The book mainly focuses on Bash which is the most popular shell and it's worth learning it as the first shell。The book is supposed to be a command line only book but it also introduces many Linux commands and tools alongside Bash。At the end of the book a very comprehensive introduction to Sed and Awk is written which suffices to say after reading it， you're an advanced user of these tools。Totally this book is suggested to expert users。 This really is the command line Bible！The book mainly focuses on Bash which is the most popular shell and it's worth learning it as the first shell。The book is supposed to be a command line only book but it also introduces many Linux commands and tools alongside Bash。At the end of the book a very comprehensive introduction to Sed and Awk is written which suffices to say after reading it， you're an advanced user of these tools。Totally this book is suggested to expert users。 。。。more

An excellent resource for anyone interested in learning or mastering Linux shell scripting。

A good book for the basics of linux from simple commands to shell scripting to sed and gawk。A chapter a day is easily doable whilst writing the scripts on your own。

I have mixed feelings with this book。 On one side， I've learned a few things I didn't know about the shell （my first contact with a Unix was probably 25 years ago）。 On the other， my perception is that it doesn't have a clear goal。 It starts with very basic stuff （which may be important so that people can catch up）， but at many times it provides too much options。 Many times I was left considering whether to skip complete pages filled with options that may make more sense when using man or --help。 I have mixed feelings with this book。 On one side， I've learned a few things I didn't know about the shell （my first contact with a Unix was probably 25 years ago）。 On the other， my perception is that it doesn't have a clear goal。 It starts with very basic stuff （which may be important so that people can catch up）， but at many times it provides too much options。 Many times I was left considering whether to skip complete pages filled with options that may make more sense when using man or --help。The better sections are the sed and awk， which I perceive are great。 But again， this was not the perfect book for me。 Final note for future versions。 Maybe not in 2015 （the edition I read）， but today， jq and docker should probably be included 。。。more

Uno de los 2 libros necesarios para comenzar a comprender Shell Scripting

Good overall overview on bash scripting， with a good pace。 It has however most of the problem of similar books， such as dry descriptions， useless and instantly obsolete sections， as well as near the end very long example listings heavy to read and of little utility。

Not really a bible。 More of a very beginner guide。

A fantastic in-depth guide for beginners of Linux。 Much of the first part of the book is what is linux， various essential commands， various file structures of Linux distros over the years， formatting and mounting drives from the command line and much more。 The second half of the book takes those concepts and applies them to shell scripting。This book has been an amazing reference and easy to follow。 I feel that this book is essential to anyone wanting to do more with the command line in Linux。

Great for beginning with shell scripts and some command line tools， but mostly general book。 If you want to advance you'll need to write lot's of stuff and I would suggest Awesome shell repo for beginning and refference: https://github。com/alebcay/awesome-shell Great for beginning with shell scripts and some command line tools， but mostly general book。 If you want to advance you'll need to write lot's of stuff and I would suggest Awesome shell repo for beginning and refference: https://github。com/alebcay/awesome-shell 。。。more

From the perspective of someone from a non-IT background but wanting to learn more， this is an excellent guide。 Yes you can pick up a few basics from Linux support forums and online tutorials， but this book gives you more background info to understand what you're doing rather than just blindly following instructions。 Might not be stictly necessary for a home user just trying out an alternative to Microsoft （as I once was） - but once you've tried out a few different distros and started to wonder From the perspective of someone from a non-IT background but wanting to learn more， this is an excellent guide。 Yes you can pick up a few basics from Linux support forums and online tutorials， but this book gives you more background info to understand what you're doing rather than just blindly following instructions。 Might not be stictly necessary for a home user just trying out an alternative to Microsoft （as I once was） - but once you've tried out a few different distros and started to wonder what more you could do with the system， this book is a very worthwhile investment。 。。。more
