Thanks for replying joeyg

I need books that are simple to understand and show you why it does what it does (so the computer logic is best)

The more competent I become then maybe a short handbook will be useful. The unix in a nutshell i have kind of does this.

My problem is I need to see examples of various commands that also explains what it does in english. I seem to find alot of stuff that is not very clear when it comes to explaining itself and makes me more confused.

I will purchase a sed/awk book (I'm assuming it will cover nawk?? as we use this alot)

Is this one good?

NAME
CPANPLUS::Shell - base class for CPANPLUS shells SYNOPSIS
use CPANPLUS::Shell; # load the shell indicated by your # config -- defaults to # CPANPLUS::Shell::Default use CPANPLUS::Shell qw[Classic] # load CPANPLUS::Shell::Classic; my $ui = CPANPLUS::Shell->new(); my $name = $ui->which; # Find out what shell you loaded $ui->shell; # run the ui shell DESCRIPTION
This module is the generic loading (and base class) for all "CPANPLUS" shells. Through this module you can load any installed "CPANPLUS" shell. Just about all the functionality is provided by the shell that you have loaded, and not by this class (which merely functions as a generic loading class), so please consult the documentation of your shell of choice.
