Re: Recommendation/pointers please - Need to brush up on CentOS/Linux command line tools

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



I can recommend the book A Practical Guide to Linux Commands, Editors and Shell Programming.

http://www.amazon.com/Practical-Guide-Commands-Editors-Programming/dp/0131478230/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/104-4412880-2983136?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1181662084&sr=8-1

It can be had for $30 and it is a big book.  It has lots of demos and examples.  While it will not necessarily tell you what tool would be best for a particular job it will tell you how to use the tool well.

The first chapter is a bit basic and they go into a lot (maybe too much) detail on the different editors it has good information.  They also have a quick list of the main command line utilities with a single line of what they do.

It is like having simplified man pages with some extra examples but in book form.
