Suggestions on where to begin?
I have been a student at Hendrix Institute for about a year now. My term is comming to an end by the end of december. I have learned varios computer programs for web development that include Flash 5 and Dreamweaver. Actionscripting, Javascript and Database development with Access was all included in my studies.
It was all done on Mac platforms. I know both Mac and Pc which is a good thing I suppose. I am now looking into Unix Programming, which is a different direction from what I am used to. Where is the best place to begin my journey? Should I begin with learning C++, or do I just start with a beginner Unix book. I know what direction I want to follow, but I do not know where to begin?
Help.

Why would you need to use this in a script?
Why can't you just use print to print out what you want printed in the begining and print for what you want at the end.
So this:
nawk 'BEGIN {print "this is the first line"}
{print $1 $2 $3}
{print $5 $6}
END {print "this is the last line"}'

SHAPE_STDVAR(7) Miscellaneous Information Manual SHAPE_STDVAR(7)
NAME
shape_stdvar - shapeTools RMS project wide variant definitions
DESCRIPTION
This file contains common variant definitions to be used in a software development project supported by the shape release management sys-
tem. The stdvar file defines a variant raster for a whole development project. This central definition facility unifies the naming and
semantics of supported system variants.
Stdvar is to be included into the Shapefiles of any part of the developed system via shape's include mechanism. The definitions in stdvar
should be carefully designed and maintained for each supported project. They usually concern variant control for all hardware/operating
system platforms to be supported or variant settings to produce different qualities of generated code (debug or optimized).
Enclosed in the shapeTools distribution, you find the stdvar file used in the development of the shape toolkit itself. This may be a good
starting point for developing an own variant raster. At least, it helps you learning the definition syntax. Otherwise, for a description on
the syntax of variant definition parts see the shape(1) manual.
