Yeah, I was going to suggest this too..... Your biggest thing will be shell scripts - they hold everything together. There's not much that you can't do in bash - but there are a lot more things that are much more complex / dedicated that you'd be better off in a language like perl. The big thing is learning how to think in logical steps. When to use if, for, while etc etc. Once you've got a grip on the basics, the only real difference between languages is what specific formatting you give to the options to keep its compiler happy. bash is something you'll use every day - so its probably easy to deal with from the start. -- Steven Haigh Email: net...@crc.id.au Web: https://www.crc.id.au Phone: (03) 9001 6090 - 0412 935 897
