I've been meaning to get around to it. I hadn't messed around with /dev/tcp prior to writing this bible. I've since implemented a very bare-bones and very featureless IRC client using /dev/tcp and bash. https://github.com/dylanaraps/birch https://github.com/dylanaraps/birch I will get around to it eventually. The one hurdle I want to get over before writing a piece about it is the handling of binary data using bash. This is something a little tricky to do with bash but it'd allow for a 'wget'/'curl' like program without the use of anything external to the shell (no HTTPS of course). I want to really understand the feature before I write about it though in the meantime I could just write a reference to the syntax/basic usage. :)
