Hands-On KornShell 93 Programming This is a great book because it has short, practical, working examples of all ksh commands. It is a reference book that you can learn from. Between this, "Unix in a nutshell", and Unix man-pages - I need nothing more for day to day Unix tasks.
Great Kornshell Book Rosenberg's book is excellent. Full of examples and solutions to everyday problems. I've not used the CD-ROM so can't rate it. Note: too bad the older ksh88 is so widely used vs. ksh93. However, with Solaris 6, 7 and 8 you can have both using /bin/ksh (88) and /usr/dt/bin/dtksh (93). Using the later might just pull me away from perl programming given all the powerful features in ksh93. Great book and a great shell.
The best KornShell book your money can buy. I also have the first edition, which has come in very useful on many ocassions over the past few years, and holds a prime place on my shelf. This book takes us to the next level and provides all the information for both the novice and experienced programmer or system adminstrator. It even takes us into the realms of HTML and CGI. This book is about KornShell programming, not a free software package. Look to GNU or FSF for that. For those that are running NT, look into the new "NT Services for UNIX" from Microsoft, which provides KornShell, a bunch of UNIX utilities, and better networking capabilities. To sum up, this book will go with the other one, close at hand.
A must have for Korn shell programmers who like example code This is an excellent book chock-full of example code that is presented in a logical and practical manner. The only down side (not the author's fault) is the availability of ksh93 on some Unix platforms (e.g. Solaris 2.5/2.6 uses the older ksh88 version). Regardless, there are still good examples for ksh88 programmers. Oh, I can't rate the enclosed CD-ROM as I have not used it yet. If the CD is any good it will be icing on the cake.
Another #1 'Must Have' Book For Any Serious SysAdmin Barry Rosenberg has done it again. This time with more flair and vision for what Kornshell can do! I purchased his original book on Kornshell and practically wore the cover off of it. He has taken a great book and made it even better! I will recommended this one to everyone I can talk to as well. Looks like this new edition will replace his other book on my bookshelf. Simply Outstanding!
