Hi despiragado...

You are not alone, as an amateur I am learning too. Been here for a while now and the big guns have taught me a great deal about shell scripting. I still think I am a smart-a$$ but they keep me in my place... ;oD

If you try something out for yourself and have seriously attempted to get something working and researched the particular area you are struggling with these guys will "show you the way". They will often write code for you knowing that you have tried your best to understand and tell you why and how it works.

If however you _demand_ help as is so often occuring on here then expect a curt reply.

If you are polite the response is unreal, and I write from experience.

Eventually you will be helping others without even realising it...

Good luck and look forwards to seeing more from you...
