What: This is me preparing for an upcoming Linux Apprenctice Test in my relatively near future. In short, I'm trying to exercise my lats.

Where: I've done work towards this goal before, Peke Ito, but I wanted all of my effort in one location, organized according to the topic list I have.
When: In my free time.
How:
- Proof of concept code
- Exercises (overhead pulldown, seated row, pull up, etc)
- Writing tests (What better way to understand material than to write tests for it?)
- Research
- Practice
- Releasable products
- Linux Bash
- Linux Interaction
- Linux Internals
- Linux User Mode Development
- Linux Kernel Development
nosig - invoke a utility immune to all possible signals
print_PID_libraries - list files loaded into memory by a PID
redirect_bin_output - redirect the output of a binary into files

- X should be the top-level task number (currently 1 - 5)
