Shell-Scripts

Description

This is a library of shell scripts (with some python code) that I found useful for either everyday activities or once in a while optimizations.

Installation & Setup

This script assumes your primary unix shell is bash.

# download/clone a copy of the repository
$ git clone https://github.com/SubArtic15/Shell-Scripts.git

# change to local repository directory
$ cd Shell-Scripts

# set up script dependencies.
# WARNING: This script relies on a ~/.bash_profile file, as well as a bash driven shell.
$ ./setup GUEST
