UNIX AWK and SED Programmer's Interactive Workbook (UNIX Interactive Workbook) (Paperback)

UNIX awk and sed Programmer's Interactive Workbook is a spoonfeeding book, aimed at providing you the basics of the subject under a discussion chopped into easy gulps. This is a laudable goal in view of the number of individuals who have contact with legacy UNIX applications. There still is an immense amount of awk, sed, and grep code embedded in institutional suites (banking and home title insurance, for instance), and there will be jobs to maintain this code for the foreseeable future, just as there are jobs maintaining the RPG code running on bigger iron. --Jack Woehr, Dr. Dobb's Electronic Review of Computer Books -- Dr. Dobb's Electronic Review of Computer Books
