Regular users of UNIX know that using advanced commands, shell features and shell scripts, improves efficiency and productivity as well as enhancing their use of Unix. Most users discover these capabilities in an ad-hoc and inefficient way, learning by trial and error and without understanding the concepts behind the features they use. This course focuses on the capabilities of the UNIX shell and the utilities commonly used in the development of shell scripts, interpreted programs. The course is run using the Korn shell, a superset of the original UNIX Bourne shell, which is rapidly becoming the shell of choice for most users. Korn-only features are highlighted at each stage, making this course suitable for users of either shell. Having said that, those that use BASH (typically on Linux) should consider attending the (QALXBASH) Mastering BASH scripting course instead. The course concentrates on the common approach to the variants of UNIX while looking at some specific areas of various systems and shells, and is particularly suitable for companies which take a multi-vendor open systems view, and is applicable to all flavours of Unix including Linux, HP-UX, UnixWare, Solaris, AIX, etc. The platform used for practical exercises is Linux.
