Hi, I saw this on freshmeat.net. It is part of the Linux documentation project. http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/Bash-Prog-Intro-HOWTO.html I'm not sure how much of a help it will be, but since you are new to shell script programming it should get you started. You should also look at the man pages. man find man bash man grep man sed man sort man awk man perl man cut You'll probably end up using many of these strung together to create your shell script.
