Chapter 4. CreditsPhilippe Martin translated this document into DocBook/SGML. While not on the job at a small French company as a software developer, he enjoys working on GNU/Linux documentation and software, reading literature, playing music, and for his peace of mind making merry with friends. You may run across him somewhere in France or in the Basque Country, or email him at feloy@free.fr. I would like to especially thank Patrick Callahan, Mike Novak, and Pal Domokos for catching bugs, pointing out ambiguities, and for suggesting clarifications and changes. Their lively discussion of shell scripting and general documentation issues inspired me to try to make this HOWTO more readable. I'm grateful to Jim Van Zandt for pointing out errors and omissions in version 0.2 of this HOWTO. He also contributed an instructive example script. Many thanks to Jordi Sanfeliu mikaku@arrakis.es for giving permission to use his fine tree script (Example A-8). Emmanuel Rouat suggested corrections and additions on command substitution and aliases (see Section 3.12 and Section 3.20). He also contributed a very nice sample .bashrc file (Appendix C). Florian Wisser enlightened me on some of the fine points of testing strings (see Example 3-13). Others making helpful suggestions were Gabor Kiss and Leopold Toetsch. My gratitude to Chet Ramey for writing Bash, an elegant and powerful scripting tool. Thanks most of all to my wife, Anita, for her encouragement and emotional support. |
