Hi Nacho, Thanks for your time to write this up, I think it is an excellent addition to the curriculum. (I finally have the source preparations complete for that document, BTW, so I'll get a project proposal together so we can put the files in a repo soon.) Here are my review comments:
[mo-1] Introduction, change 'very people' to 'very few people' [mo-2] Introduction, change 'work the way they do, most' to 'work the way they do. Most' [mo-3] Introduction, change 'script has to start' with 'script must begin' [mo-4] Introduction, change 'This reality pushed me to write this few paragraphs. Throughout them, I will try to show how they' to 'This reality inspired me to write the following pages to demonstrate how shell scripts work in OpenSolaris.' [mo-5] The Basics, change 'I will try and show what happens when we run a script inside solaris, I will start with a simple script, hello.sh which has the following content' to 'Let's start with a simple script called hello.sh which has the following content.' [mo-6] The Basics, change 'Here comes truss(1).' to 'We'll use truss(1) in the following example to examine the system calls.' [mo-7] The Basics, change 'We were told that the whatever' to 'We know that whatever' [mo-8] The Basics, change 'So, execve then is calling our shell. from it's' to 'The output shows that execve is calling our shell. From its' [mo-9] The Basics, change 'we can read that it's the system call' to 'we can read that execve is the system call' [mo-10] The Basics, change 'Let's filter that instead then' to 'Let's filter execve instead then' [mo-11] The Basics, change 'by using truss agains the shell' to 'by using truss against the shell' [mo-12] The Basics, change 'but using ./hello.sh as a first parameter' to 'but it is using ./hello.sh as a first parameter' I'll send along comments on page two later today, thanks again for this writeup, very cool! -Michelle Ignacio Marambio Cat?n wrote: > i left a little article at the contents projects about the way shell > scripts works in the opensolaris environment[1] > i would love to have it included in the opensolaris curriculum as it > not only shows some parts of the opensolaris code but also uses > serveral tools: the mdb. the source browser, DTrace and truss.
