  1. Preparing an engineering-focused presentation entitled "The Zen of Shell Scripting" for an internal talk at work. Question for seasoned Shell programmers: What would you have liked to know when you first started out? Interested in both big ideas and sharp edges that come with Shell scripting.

    #shell #unix #linux #posix #bash #zsh #tcsh #ksh #fish

  2. If I've never seen the codebase, which shell has the easiest code to read and understand? Specifically I want to isolate the code for *parsing* the command line syntax.

    All -compliant (or close enough) shells welcome! I probably don't know them all but off the top of my head:



    (sorry for the spam, marine life enthusiasts)


    & I think?

  3. #Poll: Curious about people's attitudes towards shell scripting.

    Two part question:

    1. Are you a DEVeloper (or working in a development-heavy role), OTHER-IT worker (such as a sysadmin, architect, anything in a non-development-heavy role), or NON-IT (accountant, doctor, whatever)
    2. Do you HATE shell scripting, are you INDIFferent towards (or ignorant of) shell scripting, or do you LOVE it?

  4. Linus Torvalds has proper motivated reasons for really disliking file systems without a case sensitivity.

    Read this with me from the kernel lkml, regarding bcachefs.

    Who knows a fix apart from compilation?

  6. Tired of asking a web LLM to generate aws-cli commands for you and copy+pasting the result into your shell?

    I've written a shell command that does this for me, and I can't live without it now.

    getabc.sh/

    Ready for feedback and issues from early adopters.

    #cli #bash #zsh #tcsh #linux #mac #aws

  7. @kenshirriff @b0rk Always default to enclosing file names and other argument strings to your #shell in 'single quotes' unless you want it mucked about with substituting $ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLES or `command substitution` (which uses an entirely other kind of quote!)

    "Double quotes" will honor the spaces but also tell your shell to look for variable and command expansion.

  8. This guide shows you how to change your Linux shell, making the switch from(to) Bash, Fish, Zsh, or any other shell a breeze.

  9. @ojs @OpenBSDAms A C-Shell is a traditional default shell in #BSD systems (#FreeBSD uses the #tcsh implementation). So, finding at least a default configuration isn't too surprising.

    Oh, on est 2 à pas s'être décidés à migrer de #tcsh....?

    Bon après si je pouvais scripter le velouté ce serait en #bash. C'est que pour la cuisine interactive que j'ai pas le courage de recoder mes p'tits raccourcis qui vont bien pour sortir la poêle en fonte ou éditer le réglage du four en #vi.
