Ellie Quigley has a good book on Perl, Perl by Example from
Prentice Hall. I use it, it is _good_. PH has a book on
Shell programming, Unix Shells by Example, by the same author
which _should_ be as good.
Unfortunately, the examples tnd to be short and simple minded.
But it does show you how features work. It doesn't teach
_programming_.
