Good one for the Beginner
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
I have been looking for such a book for a long time. Its a very good book for the beginner and a good one to keep until you become expert. The tips in the book were very helpful. I read the book from first page to last, and been referring it once in a while. I highly recommend it for beginners.
To go-to guide for shell scripting in the Korn Shell
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
I purchased this book ten years ago and it is still my go-to book for UNIX shell scripting in the Korn Shell. It contains everything you need for shell scripting including quick lookups when you just can't remember what switch you need to use for a particular command.
Excellent Intro book AND reference
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
This is the best Korn Shell book I've seen I presently have at least 5 different books on shell programming in Unix. I actually was able to read this book cover to cover AND am able to use this as a reference. The O'Reilly Korn shell book is good BUT, you have to read TOO MUCH to find what you're looking for. I found this book to be very complete.
Appendixes are best feature
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
I found this book to be an excellent introduction to ksh. The explanations are down to earth and the sample scripts are a fantastic teaching tool. I particularly like the appendixes which contain a command quick reference, printouts of the MAN pages and sample scripts. Thank you, Anatole Olczak.
Excellent for the Beginner or as a reference Guide.

Provides the beginner with an excellent insight into the kornshell, making it possible to start using complex commands in a short space of time. For the more advanced user, it provides an excellent reference source with a clear concise structure without appearing to be too basic.
