Brilliant

To become proficient in any powerful programming language you really have to emerse yourself in it for some time, and sed and awk are absolutely in that catagory. This little book is therefore a vital aid to short-cutting that process allwoing you to make the most of all the power there is in those utilities. Vital for both beginners and seasoned veterans. -
