BASH Shell Scripting

Today I learned a great portion of shell scripting from scratch. Now I got almost all the basic things I need to know to write a shell script to do some easy tasks. Here is a great website teaching you how to write basic shell script from scratch: http://www.linuxcommand.org/writing_shell_scripts.php#contents This website shows that you can even produce a HTML web page by shell scripting!!! A more standard reference will be: http://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/bashref.html#Brace-Expansion In the above link, the most mind-boggling part is from section 3.3 to section 3.5; if you got all these sections clear then you almost know very well to write good shell scripts.
