As somebody who contributed quite a bit to Bash Stack Overflow documentation, I have to say that I consider it a total train wreck. Before (or rather, instead of) touching this, I highly recommend reading something like the BashGuide (http://mywiki.wooledge.org/BashGuide http://mywiki.wooledge.org/BashGuide) for anybody who looks to get started with Bash. Even later, as a reference, SO Documentation isn't that useful, in my opinion.
