Piping things in and out of awk is really powerful and fast! Check out how Gary Bernhardt utilizes different Unix-commands (including awk) to filter out dead links on his blog: http://vimeo.com/11202537 http://vimeo.com/11202537
- greggyb 12y agoThis is a cool video. I have been using Linux casually for a year and a half now, but haven't progressed too much past the desktop paradigm. I am not uncomfortable in the terminal, but I feel more akin to a foreigner who's mastered a phrasebook, rather than someone able to hold even a rudimentary conversation. Do you (or does anyone else) have more examples similar to this, or resources that would be useful in moving toward this fluency in utilizing command line tools?
- michaelmcmillan 12y agoI would strongly urge you to purchase Gary Bernhardt's screencasts at http://destroyallsoftware.com http://destroyallsoftware.com. It has been extremely influential for me. I've realized that Unix should be looked at as a tool when programming. He also has strong opinions on how to test properly, check this out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdNnN5yTIeM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdNnN5yTIeM
