My notebook has Ubuntu 9.04 installed.
I am trying some examples from chapter02.
Some of the commands ex. do, touch, rm are not being recognize by shell.
also read command (used in script 'variable') is not responding.
The shell installed in my notebook is 3.2.48(1),
where as shell mentioned in the book is 2.05(b).
Does it make a difference?
Here is a typical output:
