Hi, I'd like to know if anyone can recommend a good beginner-to-intermediate book on Bash scripting, or any other type of shell scripting for that matter. I know rudimentary C++ and a fair bit o' Perl, but I want to get stuff done faster in bash, too. Not least being keeping a Linux router up-to-date and working.

Try the Advanced Bash Scripting Guide http://www.tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/ You can find a pdf of it at http://www.tldp.org/LDP/abs/abs-guide.pdf

Thanks, but I was kind of going for a dead tree edition, I have a thing for learning from paper.
