About this title

Synopsis

Shell programs are the programs that are used as the interface between the user and the heart of the UNIX operating system, called the "kernel." The automation of shell tasks can be accomplished by more sophisticated UNIX programmers through the use of script files. This work introduces readers to the three major Unix shells (the Bourne, the C, and the Korn shells); the Linux shells (Bash and TC shells) and discusses tools, regular expressions, and quoting rules. The CD-ROM contains script files and datafiles used in the text. The use of small examples, which include the output and explanations of each line of programming, illustrate each concept.

Store Description

With 3 stores less than 1 hour outside the DC/Metropolitan area (1 in Gaithersburg, 1 in Frederick and 1 in Hagerstown, MD), we have the largest selection of books in the tri-state area. Wonder Book and Video has been in business since 1980 and online since 1997. We have over 1 Million books for sale on our website and another 1 Million books for sale in our 3 locations. Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan. Members ABAA, ILAB.
