Seatbelts and Air bags for bash

by Michael Potter

bash (and scripting languages in general) act as the glue that hold other system components together. This presentation will focus on the underutilized features of bash that are critical to building production quality scripts. Demos will show you how and why to turn these features on.

Much of the bash syntax is redundant; I will also explain which syntax to use and which syntax to avoid.

Scripters at all proficiency levels will get value from attending this presentation.

When: Thursday, April 23, 2009, 6:00-8:00
Where: Obtiva, 566 W. Adams St., Suite 400, Chicago, IL
Eating: Giordano's Pizza
