This is an old revision of the document!


Bash

The Bourne Again Shell is the default command language / shell in Linux, and I've never bothered to try any other. You type stuff in (or paste it from stackexchange…) and useful stuff happens.

Examples

Randomised file names

for file in *.jpeg; do
	mv -- "$file" "$RANDOM.jpeg"
done
for file in *.jpeg; do
	mv -- "$file" "$(mktemp --dry-run XXXXXXXX.jpeg)"
done
