The goal of this book is to document known and unknown methods of doing various tasks using only built-in `bash` features. Using the snippets from this bible can help to remove unneeded dependencies from scripts and in most cases make them that little bit faster. I came across these tips and discovered a few while developing [neofetch](https://github.com/dylanaraps/neofetch), [pxltrm](https://github.com/dylanaraps/pxltrm) and some other smaller projects.

# FOREWORD
A collection of pure `bash` alternatives to external processes and programs. The `bash` scripting language is more powerful than people realise and most tasks can be accomplished without the need for or dependence on external programs.
A collection of pure `bash` alternatives to external processes and programs. The `bash` scripting language is more powerful than people realise and most tasks can be accomplished without depending on external programs.
Calling an external process in `bash` is expensive and excessive use will cause a noticeable slowdown. Scripts and programs written using built-in methods (*where applicable*) will be faster, require less dependencies and afford a better understanding of the language itself.
The content of this book provides a reference for solving problems encountered when writing programs and scripts in `bash`. Examples are in function format showcasing how to incorporate these solutions into code.
