Schedule of Seattle UNIX, Linux, & Perl Training Classes

It provides an introduction to Shell scripting and hands-on experience with the most important UNIX/Linux utilities, including vi, grep, sed, awk, and sort. You won't learn a thing about how to set your screen's background to show a photo of your cat, but by the end of the class you'll be comfortable setting file permissions, using the vi (or vim) editor to edit files and mistyped commands, using regular expressions to select matching text from files, composing multi-stage pipelines that generate custom reports, writing custom shell scripts, and accessing remote systems using the Secure Shell.

For this offering of the course, we'll have both UNIX and Linux systems on hand so students can appreciate their numerous similarities, and minor differences, from an end-user's point of view. See the course outline for further details.
