The Shell Game

This is a series of short presentations I did for our LUG. The idea was to have a 10-minute presentation for newcomers that we could use on a night when the main presentation was really geeky. When I get time I whip out another one or two of these.

  1. Part 1: What is a shell?
  2. Part 2: What are the choices in shells?
  3. Part 3: Introduction to Bash
  4. Part 4: Bash Shortcuts
