Taking a colorful approach to UNIX from the start, Hansen breaks up the work into seven broad categories, from logging in and out to user interfaces to scripts and utilities. Each lesson contains (usually) six or seven separate exercises that explain what you'll learn, pace you slowly through the details, and review everything at the end. Color in the body of the text highlights commands, making them readable. Multicolored figures explain complicated concepts in each exercise as well. By the end of the book, Hansen succeeds in convincing you that you can really write your own command files. A great place to start in understanding the mysteries of UNIX.
