[ILUG] Bash me up

[Karl Carlile]

Hi
I have been seriously applying myself to BASH and an still not certain what 
the benefits in mastering it are. There is emacs which seems to have s a 
somewhat different lingo to BASH. The same for EMACS ELISP. Why the different 
languages. Seems to be some overlap. What are the different functions they 
each serve.
Finally are there no online texts that pose problems for BASH students so that 
they can use their knowledge and skill to solve them using BASH.C=++ books 
have this kind of thing. Cut one of my fingers so please excuse my bad 
writing.
