I like zsh for a command-line shell, but when writing scripts for general
usage I stick with the sh-compatibile subset of capabilities, and I enforce
that on myself with the #!/bin/sh shebang. If I need more than what that
can gracefully do, I usually run to the arms of Ruby.

See also "man raw". I think what you want is raw() and noraw().

You could even just output the intersection of the two lists:
ruby -e 'puts File.open("foo.txt").readlines.map {|l| l.chomp} & \
File.open("bar.txt").readlines.map {|l| l.chomp }
Whatever editor you
decide to use, I would advise reading up on it before jumping into text
files.
To list files in a directory, the command is 'ls'. Type 'man ls' to get
full documentation. In fact, for most Unix commands, 'man' is your
friend.

alled fine for me, but I keep getting core
dumps when I run it. There is no 'uzbl' anywhere in the path, so I tried
'uzbl-browser' and 'uzbl-tabbed'. For 'uzbl-browser' it brings up the
initial screen OK, but typing 'fl' crashes it.

Up to a point, yes. But as options become more complex, either the GUI
must also become more complex or
pparent
processor or disk load. I'll leave it sitting there and see what else I
can figure out.
It's actually in the configure phase of the ORBit port, on which py-gtk
apparently depends.

pt a GUI, many of
which do not require knowledge of exactly where Gui element is located.
However, for automating repeated tasks (as distinguished from running
automated tests of the GUI itself), scripting a GUI is the wrong way to
do it. It's layering on an entirely unnecessary layer of abstraction (the
UI), and then working around it.
