Introduction

What is Bash?

Bash is the shell, or command language interpreter, for the GNU operating system. The name is an acronym for the 'Bourne-Again SHell', a pun on Stephen Bourne, the author of the direct ancestor of the current Unix shell sh, which appeared in the Seventh Edition Bell Labs Research version of Unix.

Bash是shell,或者,对于GUN操作系统而言它也叫做指令语言解释器。这个名字源于"Bourne-Again SHell"的首字母缩写,Stephen Bourne的双关语,其直接始祖源自当前Unix shell sh,它始现于贝尔实验室Unix的第七个版本。

Bash is largely compatible with sh and incorporates useful features from the Korn shell ksh and the C shell csh. It is intended to be a conformant implementation of the IEEE POSIX Shell and Tools portion of the IEEE POSIX specification (IEEE Standard 1003.1). It offers functional improvements over sh for both interactive and programming use.

Bash在很大程度上与sh是兼容的,并且它也从Korn shell ksh以及C shell csh纳入了一些有用的功能。它的目的是成为IEEE POSIX Shell的一致实现,以及IEEE POSIX规范(IEEE Standard 1003.1)的工具部分。他提供了sh针对交互及编程方面的功能改善。

While the GNU operating system provides other shells, including a version of csh, Bash is the default shell. Like other GNU software, Bash is quite portable. It currently runs on nearly every version of Unix and a few other operating systems - independently-supported ports exist for MS-DOS, OS/2, and Windows platforms.

在GNU操作系统提供其他shells时,包括csh的一个版本,Bash是缺省的shell。如同其他GNU软件,Bash是非常便携的。它几乎允许于每一个版本的Unix以及其他一些操作系统 - 基于端口提供独立支持如MS-DOS,OS/2以及Windows平台。

What is a shell?

At its base, a shell is simply a macro processor that executes commands. The term macro processor means functionality where text and symbols are expanded to create larger expressions.

于其基础,shell是一个简单的用于执行指令的宏处理器。宏处理器这个术语意味着这样的功能,那里一些文本和符号可被扩展成为更大的表达式。

A Unix shell is both a command interpreter and a programming language. As a command interpreter, the shell provides the user interface to the rich set of GNU utilities. The programming language features allow these utilities to be combined. Files containing commands can be created, and become commands themselves. These new commands have the same status as system commands in directories such as /bin, allowing users or groups to establish custom environments to automate their common tasks.

Unix shell既是一个指令解释器也是一种编程语言。作为指令解释器,shell针对丰富的GUN工具提供了用户接口。而它的编程语言特性又允许这些工具可被组合起来。包含指令的文件可以被创建,而它们又成为指令的一部分。这些新指令与在其他目录中的系统指令有着相同的地位例如/bin,并允许用户或组去建立客户环境或自动化他们的公共任务。

Shells may be used interactively or non-interactively. In interactive mode, they accept input typed from the keyboard. When executing non-interactively, shells execute commands read from a file.

Shells的使用可以是交互或非交互的。在交互模式下,它们接受键盘输入。在非交互执行时, shells执行可从文件读取。

A shell allows execution of GNU commands, both synchronously and asynchronously. The shell waits for synchronous commands to complete before accepting more input; asynchronous commands continue to execute in parallel with the shell while it reads and executes additional commands. The redirection constructs permit fine-grained control of the input and output of those commands. Moreover, the shell allows control over the contents of commands’ environments.

一个shell允许一同步和异步两种方式执行GNU指令。对于同步指令shell等待以完成更多的输入;对于异步指令shell执行读或其它指令是并发执行的。重定向构造允许一更细的粒度控制指令的输入和输出。而且,shell允许支配指令环境的内容。

Shells also provide a small set of built-in commands (builtins) implementing functionality impossible or inconvenient to obtain via separate utilities. For example, cd, break, continue, and exec cannot be implemented outside of the shell because they directly manipulate the shell itself. The history, getopts, kill, or pwd builtins, among others, could be implemented in separate utilities, but they are more convenient to use as builtin commands. All of the shell builtins are described in subsequent sections.

Shells也针对那些不可能或不方便获得的第三方工具提供了少量内置指令(嵌入部件)的功能实现。例如:cd,break,continue以及exec等无法再shell外部实现因为它们直接操纵shell自己。历史上getopts、kill或pwd等嵌入组件,及其他可以被分别实现为不同工具,但是作为内置的指令,它们更方便一些。所有这些shell嵌入部件后面的章节还将介绍。

While executing commands is essential, most of the power (and complexity) of shells is due to their embedded programming languages. Like any high-level language, the shell provides variables, flow control constructs, quoting, and functions.

当必须执行指令时,shells的强大或复杂之处应归结于它们的嵌入式编程语言。如同其他任何高级语言,shell提供变量、流程控制结构、引用已经函数等功能。

Shells offer features geared specifically for interactive use rather than to augment the programming language. These interactive features include job control, command line editing, command history and aliases. Each of these features is described in this manual.

Shells提供的特性特别适合交互使用而非增加编程语言。这些交互特性包括作业控制、命令行编辑、命令历史记录和别名。所有这些特性都将在本手册中叙述。

Definitions

These definitions are used throughout the remainder of this manual.

Basic Shell Features

Bash is an acronym for ‘Bourne-Again SHell’. The Bourne shell is the traditional Unix shell originally written by Stephen Bourne. All of the Bourne shell builtin commands are available in Bash, The rules for evaluation and quoting are taken from the POSIX specification for the ‘standard’ Unix shell.

Bash是‘Bourne-Again SHell’的首字母缩写。Bourne shell是传统Unix shell,它诞生之初是有Stephen Bourne写就的。所有Bourne shell的内置命令在Bash中都是可用的,其评估和引用规则取自POSIX规范的Unix shell ‘standard’。

This chapter briefly summarizes the shell’s ‘building blocks’: commands, control structures, shell functions, shell parameters, shell expansions, redirections, which are a way to direct input and output from and to named files, and how the shell executes commands.

本章简述了shell的‘building blocks’(构造块):命令、控制结构、shell函数、shell 参数, shell 扩展, redirections(重定向),它是一种基于命名文件的直接输入和输出方法,以及shell怎样执行命令。

Shell Syntax: What your input means to the shell.

对shell来说你输入的是什么?

Shell Commands: The types of commands you can use.

你可以使用的命令。

Shell Functions: Grouping commands by name.

按名称分组的命令。

Shell Parameters: How the shell stores values.

shell如何存储值。

Shell Expansions: How Bash expands parameters and the various expansions available.

Bash如何扩展参数以及可用的扩展。

Redirections: A way to control where input and output go.

控制输入和输出地的方法。

Executing Commands: What happens when you run a command.

当你运行一个命令时发生了什么?

Shell Scripts: Executing files of shell commands.

shell命令的执行文件。

Shell Syntax

Shell Operation: The basic operation of the shell.

shell的基本操作。

Quoting: How to remove the special meaning from characters.

如何删除字符的特殊含义。

Comments: How to specify comments.

如何指定注释。

When the shell reads input, it proceeds through a sequence of operations. If the input indicates the beginning of a comment, the shell ignores the comment symbol (‘#’), and the rest of that line.

当shell读取输入时,它是按照一定顺序的操作来完成的。如果输入始于一个注释,则shell将忽略改行注释符号("#")及其后的字符。

Otherwise, roughly speaking, the shell reads its input and divides the input into words and operators, employing the quoting rules to select which meanings to assign various words and characters.

其他方面,大约的说,shell读取输入并且把输入内容分成字(words)和操作符(operators),通过引用规则来选各不同的种含义被指派到不同的字(words)和字符(characters)。

The shell then parses these tokens into commands and other constructs, removes the special meaning of certain words or characters, expands others, redirects input and output as needed, executes the specified command, waits for the command’s exit status, and makes that exit status available for further inspection or processing.

然后shell解析这些令牌(tokens)为命令和其他结构,之后移除某些字或字符的特殊意义,其他扩展也包括:根据需要重定向输入和输出,执行指定的指令,等待命令的退出状态,并且让合格退出状态对于其他检查和处理是可用的。
