This book is a great cookbook for shell scripts. Dave Taylor has taken 101 tasks, turned them into shell scripts and offered suggestions for tweaking them for your own custom usage. Several of these suggestions will be modified and added to my own code base. This book is broken up into sections covering things from building your own code library and enhancing existing commands to automating administrative tasks and creating your own games. A chapter is even dedicated to scripting within Mac OS X. Wicked Cool Shell Scripts is not for beginners, but is suggested reading for anyone who enjoys shell scripting or is responsible for administrating systems.
