BASH tips and tricks

Ever since I started using Linux, BASH has been the shell of my choice. Though I have used numerous other shells like Korn Shell, Bourne shell (which is the default shell in Unix), C shell and so on. Bash is actually an acronym for Bourne Again SHell.

Richard Bradshaw who is a teacher at a school in United Kingdom has put together a page detailing some of the common annoyances he has encountered while using BASH and ways of overcoming them.

As a recap, do take a look at some of the previous articles related to BASH shell on this blog such as ...
