Aspects of Shell Scripting

Snippets of scripts

• A shell script template showing Shell Option Parsing, both single letters like -v and also long options like --help
• A shell script template showing Simpler Shell Option Parsing, just recognises single letters & the long option --help, this is often enough (people expect a --help option).
