====== Bash Hackers Wiki needs love ======
There are things to do. Always.
===== Article optics and structure =====
Target: A more or less unique structure (done)
* [[syntax:ccmd:intro]] - bring all mentioned compound command description pages into a format
* SYNOPSIS
* DESCRIPTION
* (with as many sub-topics as needed)
* EXAMPLES
* PORTABILITY CONSIDERATIONS
* SEE ALSO
* do the same with command descriptions (printf, read, ...)
===== Article content and correctness =====
In general all pages need review, all the time. If you find anything incorrect, stupid, unclear, just edit the page or write a mail. It's also possible to use the integrated discussion option (below every article).
Specific needs:
* [[scripting:tutoriallist]] - new tutorials? opinions? etc.
===== Article code examples =====
* [[howto:getopts_tutorial]] - lacks some complex or more sophisticated examples
===== Article completeness =====
* [[scripting:newbie_traps]] - add your personal top newbie traps
* [[internals:shell_options]] - are these all options?
* [[commands:builtin:printf]] - can printf do more?
* [[syntax:shellvars]] - needs complete shell variables
===== Greg's BashFAQ mirror =====
The code rewrite to mirror Greg's BashFAQ was a bad idea, it doesn't work good. A fix to not lose the links would be to invent some nifty mod_rewrite rules to forward any requests to the namespace to the real BashFAQ wiki.
**Update:** Just hacked the rewrite rules - the mirror is gone and the mirror URLs redirect to Greg's BashFAQ.
**Future:** Mirror it as real MoinMoinWiki instance. This won't happen here on the webspace, more on a dedicated server.
===== Getopts tutorial =====
* more examples
* workaround to use long options: translate long option to short option and replace positional parameters before using getopts
