You were reading my mind today. I needed a simple script this morning and had no idea how to make it.

Thank you, I've been using Linux Mint for a year or so. I'm just starting to play with different commands in terminal and want to learn to use them. Beginners tutorials like this for writing useful scripts is what I was looking for. Thank you again

Joe, you're just a master at teaching Unix! Thank you for your precious time!

I used to use the shell in Amiga-Dos on the Amiga and Xtree in MS-DOS quite a bit, a very long time ago and enjoyed the control I had over the system, I have done a little bit of scripting on Raspians shell on the Raspberry Pi, this has inspired me to take it further!
Thanks for the video Joe and the book recommendation which I will download and print if it's not too large.

👍👍👍👍 THANKS JOE! I've been waiting for more BASH & Scripting videos from you. The subject matter is interesting and actually incredibly FUN to me!

And when you went (somewhat) in-depth on several points of your top 5 reasons you love LINUX video yesterday, I thought to myself "hopefully he'll release more BASH / Terminal videos".

Love that you're back doing *more* LINUX uploads. And you sound happy as well (as a side note) so hopefully your time off served you well 😬

Cheers!

Cool video. I started writing scripts about 4 months ago knowing nothing. Google was my best friend. Every time I had an idea, I just googled the question and it got me started. Every question that came up, I googled it and got the answer. Now I am ready for a book, but Google got me started. Thanks.
