Chapter 3. Choosing the right tools
This chapter will introduce some tools which will help us when we're writing Bash scripts. We will focus on two types of tools: GUI based editors (Atom and Notepad++) and terminal based editors (vim, nano). We will describe the tools and how to use them, their strengths and weaknesses, and how to use both GUI and terminal based editors together for the best result.
The following commands will be introduced in this chapter: vim, nano, ls.
The following topics will be covered in this chapter:
- Using graphical editors for shell scripting
- Using command-line editors for shell scripting
- Combining graphical editors with command-line editors when writing shell scripts
