Patterns and string processing in shell scripts

Use shell scripts (I prefer ash) to automate your command-line usage. If you need to take this a bit further, use Tcl as a gluing language. For advanced pattern matching (and e.g. on a lot of files), use Perl, but this language is less appropriate as a simple 'glue'.
