yes, i've started learning it for this semester, I have to make a project for my Operating Systems class but I never thought it could be so much fun to work with it. |

Yeah shell scripting is fun, but I wouldn't say you can do everything with it
For what OS are you scripting? *nix, Linux, VMS ?
We first made scripts for Unix Bourne Shell on a Sun's solaris 5.7 system and later on the semester we made scripts for OpenVMS on a Alpha computer in my OS class last year.
Was cool yeah, but working on VMS is boring
Oh also, coding with VI is a pain  |

yeah, i´m coding for linux, we use vi because it's present on most linux distributions, we learned most commands for the Bourne Shell but we are free to use the others (C shell, korn, etc...)
Vi can be irritating sometimes.
btw, how dificult is assembly for someone with C++ knowledge?

assembly isn't very difficult i dont think.... it's all the SIMPLEST commands there are! hehe... of course, making something useful using nothing but simple commands is kinda hard. I learned Z80 assembly prior to C++, and MIPS isnt very hard either, but x86 is quite a bit more difficult that those two. |

Z80 still give me nightmares from the days I called the TI-83+ the computer I "borrowed" for a semester. Don't talk about Motorrolla 68k, I'm just happy they made a C compiler for that little machine. Now, soon I'll have to go back to more than just looking at asm code, decompilers for SNES and NES games brings nightmares w/ asm.
[edit]BTW, who's the poor fools that say they don't like linux, what you mean you don't like it, that can do anything (except play some games, and some other programs that free substitutes exist for) you just have to do a bit more work, or web browsing to find it. Hell, it's one reason why I don't bother looking into VB and DirectX libraries, other being I'm not that far along to know too much about directx, and I want my stuff to be cross-platform and VB dosn't do that...last I checked.
