Linux

General

• • The Linux Documentation Project (TLDP)

    • Updates on this site have slowed, so it is mostly useful for information on established parts of the Linux system, and for basic introductions. It offers its guides in a variety of formats. Below, I generally link the on-line HTML version, but you can go back and pull other formats from the home page of the guide.

  • Introduction to Linux (TLDP), Machtelt Garrels, 2008.

  • UNIX Tutorial for Beginners, by M.Stonebank AT surrey.ac.uk (thanks to Adam Luck for pointing out this site)

The bash Shell

• • Bash Guide for Beginners (TLDP), Machtelt Garrels, December 2008.

  • Advanced Bash-Scripting Guide (TLDP), Mendel Cooper, March 2014.
