This Lesson will introduce you to wildcards and show you how to use them on the command line. Since shell scripts are really nothing more than a collection of command lines, this should prove to be really helpful to you. After that, we'll get into specifically how to use wildcards and shell scripts, and you'll watch a demo to give you a practical understanding of wildcard scripting.
This Lesson is intended for anyone looking to learn more about bash scripting and shell programming in Linux.
To get the most out of this Lesson, you should have some basic knowledge of the command line, but it's not essential.
