Hi,
I'm in a second year unix course at school, and we are really starting to get into the scripting aspect of it.
I already own the "Unix in a Nutshell - O'Reilly", and the "Unix - Peachpit Press" books but these book really don't go into too much detail about scripting. So I was wondering if there were any good unix books out there with a good bit on scripting.

Thanks,

A

Scripting is a big word in todays world!

What scripting language are you interested in?

PHP? KSH? BASH? JSP? PERL?

What do you plan on doing with the scripts?

FWIW: There are some articles comparing JSP, PHP and ASP scripting languages on the site http://my.unix.com/

Unix Scripting

The scripting we will be doing in class will be KSH, BASH.
I just want to have a book with a lot of detail about scripting, ways in doing it, source code, trick tips, etc.

Thanks again.

This was my first text for UNIX shell scripts. This is a great book and highly recommended. If you click on the photo, it will take you to Amazon.com for more details.
