Re: Allow myself to introduce...myself
My favorite book, and the one that has saved me more than once from the
dreaded "what was that option" question is "Linux in a Nutshell". All the
Bash, VI, Emacs commands you ever wanted to know about.
A good book for someone who knows a little about Linux and wants to explore
further. One of the O'Reilly Nutshell books.
OBTW, Hi Kevin. Welcome!
