Linux Command Line – Shell Scripts: Introduction

This video was created for students in my college class on using the Linux/UNIX command line (tonysako.com). In this video you will be introduced to the concept of shell scripts in Linux and UNIX. Scripts are useful when you have a series of commands that you want to repeat. They can also perform complicated tasks and be as sophisticated as programs written in other languages such as PHP, Python, C/C++, Java, etc. except they are written using combinations of the shell commands.
