Book Review: Unix Shell Programming, 3rd ed.
Ed Schaefer
In 1987, the best book for learning shell programming was the 1st edition of Unix Shell Programming, by Stephen Kochan and Patrick Wood. Back then, if somebody asked to borrow your "Kochan & Wood", you knew exactly what they were asking for, but you jealously guarded your copy because borrowers tended not to return it. It was a true classic for learning Bourne shell programming. As a learning tool, the newest edition of Unix Shell Programming still deserves the same high praise.

Tool of the Month: rpl
Joe "Zonker" Brockmeier
This month, I'll introduce a tool that is handy for admins, programmers, and anybody who works with text files on a regular basis. The utility is rpl, short for "replace strings", which is exactly what it does. rpl is a simple utility that searches files for a text string and replaces that text string with another that you specify.

The Open Road: A look at OpenSolaris
Joe "Zonker" Brockmeier
Since Sun released OpenSolaris back in June, I've been itching to spend a little time with the release and see what OpenSolaris has to offer and what might be coming up for Solaris enthusiasts and developers, as well as users who are new to Solaris.
Since OpenSolaris isn't really "finished," this will be more of a overview, rather than a critical review of the product.
