This is an automated report about activity of our newsgroup
comp.os.linux.announce. It covers period between the
previous report and the current one, ending
on Mon Nov 15 00:05:01 CST 2004.
Note that we do not report the number of articles cancelled
after they got approved, because the cancellations are done
manually. Typically messages get cancelled by requests of
posters themselves.
Lastly, the statistics below are skewed towards higher numbers because
there are always some test messages from moderators themselves who
approve and reject them to make sure that our robomoderator functions
properly.
Approved: 26 messages
Rejected: 13 messages

Subject: Advanced Bash Scripting Guide: version 3.1 update
Announcing the version 3.1 release of the "Advanced Bash Scripting Guide."
This e-book tutorial and reference is the equivalent of a 612-page
print book. With 300 illustrative examples (including such goodies as an
anti-spammer script), the book covers virtually every aspect of scripting.
This e-book now contains printable reference cards, just like commercially
available computer tutorials.
The author invites comparisons with *any* of the commercially printed books on
shell scripting. His aim was to write "best of category" documentation.
"This tutorial assumes no previous knowledge of
scripting or programming, but progresses rapidly toward an
intermediate/advanced level of instruction ...all the while
sneaking in little snippets of UNIX wisdom and lore. It serves
as a textbook, a manual for self-study, and a reference
and source of knowledge on shell scripting techniques. The
exercises and heavily-commented examples invite active reader
participation, under the premise that the only way to really
learn scripting is to write scripts."
