"Bash" in code should be "bash" as UNIX is case sensitive
ERRATA: (This errata is for the first 4,000 copies of this book.) During the course of editing this book, a global search-and-replace was conducted that changed all instances of "bash" to "Bash" in the code. Given that UNIX is case-sensitive, references in the code should be to "bash". Note that all the original code available at the Downloads tab of this page was never affected. The result was limited to the first line of Bash shell scripts, defined as: #!/bin/Bash Instead, the correct declaration should be: #!/bin/bash In the book you may also see some Bash shell script filenames incorrectly named with a ".Bash" filename extension instead of the correct ".bash" filename extension. For example, the filename: my_shell_script.Bash should actually be: my_shell_script.bash Thanks for your understanding.
