Print PageIntermediate Unix & Korn Shell Scripting
Description:
This course is designed for those who have taken Introduction to Unix, or have equivalent experience, and require greater productivity within the Unix environment. It teaches shell scripting for the Korn shell and the Bash shell. Both shells are close relatives of the Bourne shell and are very similar. Participants can focus on a specific Shell in class, or switch between the two shells. The Korn shell is the shell historically used by Corporate America. The Bash shell is an improved Bourne shell used on Linux systems, Apple`s OS X systems, and the CYGWIN PC desktop application. Typical Unix commands used in shell scripting will be presented along with programming concepts used in writing scripts (branching, loops, variables, quoting, sub-shells, debugging, and trapping signals). The stream editor sed is also covered with an introduction to basic regular expressions.
