Setup for Bash Programming
Required Software
- Linux or UNIX System V R4 or later with the bash shell.
- Each student will need either:
- A Linux or Unix Workstation such as a PC running Linux
- A terminal to access a Linux or Unix server (see Other)
- Xterminal
- Text terminal ( i.e. VT100 )
- Terminal Emulation Software ( we suggest TeraTerm Pro for Windows )
Instructions
If using a terminal to access a Linux or Unix server (option 2 under Hardware), then each student will require his or her own user account and must:
- Log in to the student account
- Extract the course files from the bash-1.1.4SF.tar file with the tar utility:
tar -xf bash-1.1.4SF.tar
This will create a bash directory that contains the course files.
