• The Return of Command-Line Kung Fu

  by Hal Pomeranz

  The Linux/Unix command-line is an amazingly powerful programming environment. Mastering its functionality can make you enormously more productive. Hal Pomeranz, co-author of the weekly "Command-Line Kung Fu":http://blog.commandline... column, returns with even more command-line tips and tricks that will make you gasp with amazement and squeal with delight.

  In this episode:

  • Fun with FIFOs
  • Crazy output redirection stunts
  • Manipulating timestamps for fun, profit, ... and EVIL!
  • Why sed is your friend
  • ... and much, much more!
