I've read it, and I refer to it in several of my documents. So I can
assure you no offence is meant, your guide is a good reference
for Bash, but it is, imho, too much for what most people need.
My background in this is as a Sun/Solaris teacher, I sometimes have to
teach the Sun Korn Shell programming course. And then people often ask,
how about this or that feature in Bash, so I decided, for starters for my
own reference, to make sort of a Bash equivalent of that course. So it is
more user oriented, and we leave out the "advanced" keyword.
Let me make it very clear that I need the Advanced Bash Scripting Guide,
this is meant to be an addition, or rather a prelude, and not something
on the lines of I-can-do-this-better. Except that it tries to be better
than the Korn shell course, but with Bash, that's not all too difficult
;-)
Best regards,
Tille.
