This collection of scripts was originally written for older versions of bash by Noah Friedman (friedman@gnu.ai.mit.edu). The conversion to bash v2 syntax was done by Chet Ramey. These scripts are as-is; there is no copyright associated with any of them. They exist simply as examples of bash scripting. Here's a description of what's in this directory: aref.bash pseudo-arrays and substring indexing examples bash.sub.bash library functions used by require.bash bash_version.bash a function to slice up $BASH_VERSION meta.bash enable and disable eight-bit readline input mktmp.bash make a temporary file with a unique name number.bash a fun hack to translate numerals into english prompt.bash a way to set PS1 to some predefined strings remap_keys.bash a front end to `bind' to redo readline bindings require.bash lisp-like require/provide library functions for bash send_mail.bash replacement smtp client written in bash shcat.bash bash replacement for `cat' source.bash replacement for source that uses current directory string.bash the string(3) functions at the shell level stty.bash front-end to stty that changes readline bindings too y_or_n_p.bash prompt for a yes/no/quit answer
