Do you think you have to lock yourself in a basement reading cryptic man pages for months on end in order to have ninja like command line skills?

In reality, if you had someone share their most powerful command line tips, tricks, and patterns you'd save yourself a lot of time and frustration. What if you could look over the shoulder of a good friend that just happened to be a command line guru? What if they not only showed you the commands they were using, but why they were using them and exactly how they worked? And what if that friend took the time to write all of it down so you can refer to it whenever you liked?

Well, a friend did just that. Command Line Kung Fu is packed with dozens of tips and over 100 practical real-world examples. You won't find theoretical examples in this book. The examples demonstrate how to solve actual problems and accomplish worthwhile goals.

      And integrating FZF fuzzy search into that is the ONLY way.

  I think the author is confused between kung fu and ninja.

  Done some of his udemy stuff (while on sale obviously, this is OZB) and was quite good even as refresher after being away from Ubuntu or similar for quite a while.
  Has a lot of other content which has been useful to me at times over the years.
