Where can I learn more about the shell?

• Software Carpentry tutorial - The Unix shell
• The shell handout / cheatsheet - Command Reference
• explainshell.com
• commandlinefu.com
• http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Bash-Prog-Intro-HOWTO.html
• man bash
• Google - if you don't know how to do something, try Googling it. Other people have probably had the same question.
• Learn by doing. There's no real other way to learn this than by trying it out. Write your next paper in nano (really emacs or vi), open pdfs from the command line, automate something you don't really need to automate.
