Making interactive shell scripts with menus and prompts
Abstract: Interactive shell scripts make the user experience better by letting the script and the user talkto each other in real time. This article talks about the best ways to make interactive shell scripts that use menus, prompts, and checking user input. It starts by talking about the basic tools that are available in Bash and other popular shells that make it possible to interact with the computer. These tools include …

Resilient Shell-Based Networking Frameworks for DTN Environments: Enhancing Reliability and Security across Disrupted and High-Latency Satellite Channels
Abstract: The foundation of DTN, as suggested by the Internet Research Task Force (IRTF), is the definition of a suite of protocols that function in networks with periodic disconnections and long- duration route conditions. A permanent end-to-end channel from the source to the destination is the foundation of traditional IP-based networking. However, DTN employs a store-carry- forward approach that gives intermediary nodes the ability to temporarily hold messages (or bundles) until …

Advances in Shell Programming: Techniques, Tools, and Emerging Trends
Abstract: Shell programming has undergone a significant transformation, shifting from simple command-line interactions to a mature, versatile scripting environment that supports modern computing needs. Over time, shells such as Bash, Zsh, and PowerShell have expanded far beyond basic task execution, evolving into powerful tools capable of handling complex automation workflows, system configuration tasks, and cross-platform orchestration. These environments now offer improved error handling, stronger security features, integrated performance-monitoring options, and more …
