+UNIX&reg; Shell Scripting Workshop
+==================================
+
+Introduction to the UNIX Shell Language and Environment
+-------------------------------------------------------
+
+This is a workshop that I gave at the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT)
+in the Spring of 2012 as part of the workshop series of the university's chapter
+of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM).  It was based on a similar
+tutorial I had given during meetings of NJIT ACM's SIG GNU/Linux in the Fall of
+2011.

+The workshop referred to the Shell and Utilities (XCU) volume of
+[POSIX.1-2008][posix], [published][unix] by the IEEE and The Open Group.
+Everything covered applies to any sufficiently-compliant shell and operating
+system.

+
+The following is a cleaned-up version of the shell session from the

+
+  * [Plain text (Markdown) document](session.txt)
+  * [HTML document](session.html)
+
+Examples
+--------
+
+At the end of the workshop, I showed the following example shell scripts:
+
+  * [`which` of debianutils][debianutils-which] (an implementation of [a program
+    available][which] on many UNIX-like operating systems), notable for its use
+    of the internal field separator (IFS) to parse the `PATH` variable
+  * [`opkbuild`][opkbuild] of opkhelper (a set of scripts I wrote)
+
