Do you know any programming languages?
This is a cool thread. Thanks for opening it, Albertoefg
I was able to learn the basics of Bash Scripting by watching the videos on
this playlist:

Feel free to use youtube-dl and watch on your own pace and time.
The second link I can download as a PDF, the first link only as an HTML
No. The file browser opens and in the bottom right there is a drop-down box
which says HTML and if I save the file it is an HTML file. With other
people's links the drop-down box in the file browser says PDF and when I
download the file it is a PDF file not an HTML file.
If you right
Thanks pragmatist for your very good explanation
So the first thing is to learn as much as you can about the command-line and
get practice by using it often
The other links are probably links to links and yours are links directly to
files. Still, I don't know why that should matter. My point was not that
people here cannot access your PDF files, it was a question: why can I
right-click with the other links but not with yours?
Yes, javascript
So, the Tor browser bundle warns people not to open files downloaded through
Tor except offline. I assume it is fine to open them automatically in the
browser because you are connected to Tor, in pdf.js?
"from experience mastering (comfortably) a trade usually takes 10 years."
Maybe, but you don't have to be a master bash script programmer to write some
very effective scripts, or even to be a system administrator! Mastery is
necessary if you are doing very complex things. Think of
Actually, I'm using the stock IceCat from Trisquel 7 on both my desktop and
laptop and in both cases I have the problem. I just diabled LibreJS and it
does not matter. With javascript enabled it works, with it not enabled it
does not work.
I tried with abrowser which has javascript
IceCat can display PDFs. NoScript does not block it, at least for me, and
there is an option to allow/deny pdf.js.
So your IceCat is probably a chilly old moggy, on its last legs and surviving
on spam and old breadcrusts.
Thank you Magic Bannana ;-)
Your slides give an insight on what amazing capabilities
the shell offers.
for noobs like me:

Just a question i often ask myself is how many years do students in IT study
shell or scripts.
from
Excellent! Already I've learned more about commands I thought I knew well.
Even though I solve the exercises, I see that your solution is always
simpler!
Aside from the clear advice you give here all the time, these slides prove
what an excellent teacher you are. I've been a student in
For the other links in this thread I could just right-click on the link and
choose "save link as" and it saves as a pdf file. For Magic's links this did
not work for me.
Instead, click the link. If you use IceCat and have javascript enabled, the
viewer will display the PDF and you can
the pdf file links aren't working for me. They download as html files and
when I open the html files with icecat I get a "server not found" message.
The Linux Documentation Project Great! Sometimes I forget about this
excellent resource. Thank you for the reminder!
I think a good idea would be to study this one first->

Then you learn this one->

Then you are invincible.. in a Spiderman sort of way.. U_u
I learned with this online guide:
http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Bash-Prog-Intro-HOWTO.html
I also bought a book called "bash pocket reference" which has a comprehensive
list of commands that you can use in your scripts. I am quite bad at writing
scripts but I hardly ever need to so it is fine. It
I recently posted about the password generator by jxself.
And I would like to learn to do those kind of things by myself. Where do you
recommend me to learn?
