- I posted an article about a good shell programming book recently, but
- did not include the name of the publishers. Since then I have got a lot
- of queries about it. So here it is once more:-)

- Pub: SAMS (A Division of MacMillian Computer Publishing)
- 11711 North College, Carmel, Indiana 46032 USA
- ISBN 0-672-22715-0

- This book is a must read for all you shell enthusiasts out there
- whether you are a novice or an expert user. It covers all the
- fundamental topics in great detail such as filters, regular
- expressions, sed, awk, sort, pipes, cut, join etc. It also
- has a full chapter on the awk programming language, the
- process environment, shell functions and a great deal of very
- relavant examples. I hope that you will get as much out of this
- book as I did.
