bash examples

This set of examples goes with zine Bite Size Bash. There's approximately one file per page of the zine.

how to run the examples

To run the globs example, run:

bash 12-globs.sh

I'd recommend both opening the example file in a text editor (so you can read the code) and running the example in a terminal (to see the output).

and play around with them!

If you're confused about something in one of the examples, experiment! Make your own examples! See what happens! I've learned a LOT about bash by just experimenting with different tiny shell scripts and making sure I understand what they're doing.
