Summary
We’ve covered some important basics in this chapter. We started by describing the structure and the components of a shell command, and how to perform multiple actions with just one single command. Then, we looked at the find
utility, and the cool things that you can do with it. We then looked at how to run commands recursively, and wrapped up with a discussion about escaping and quoting.
In the next chapter, we’ll talk about variables and pipelines. I’ll see you there.
