Shell Scripting

Our Software Development forum category encompasses topics related to application programming and software design. When posting programming code, encase it in [code], [code=syntax], where 'syntax' is any language found within our Code Snippets section, or [icode], for inline code, bbcode tags. Also, to keep DaniWeb a student-friendly place to learn, don't expect quick solutions to your homework. We'll help you get started and exchange algorithm ideas, but only if you show that you're willing to put in effort as well.

Our Shell Scripting forum is the place for Q&A-style discussions related to *nix shell scripting languages such as bash. Note that we also have a separate Perl forum within the Software Development category.
