It's a reference site about Bash scripting, and it's being improved each day since it still has some rough edges. But I'm starting to like the result on desktop resoulution. Next up is improving the CSS for low-res devices and adding toggable color-themes by clicking some radio-buttons or something :-)

Still waiting for your DNS to propogate :)

I reduced the TTL values - thank you for informing. Thought it had propagated, so I increased the values a bit recently.

I'm just curious, did you construct these tables manually? I mean did you type those html tags manually?

Nice. My initial reaction is that the serif fonts are hard to read. Can you try some console or san-serif fonts, or make that configurable? Someone else suggested toggleable themes, so it would go with that.

Try doing the string manipulation section for Zsh instead ;) It will kill you.

I made a template table which I then added table-rows to by copy-paste and then filling them out.

It was a bit tedious work I must admit.

Configurable fonts is a nice proposal - will try that, thanks!

Very nice. I know that it is a bash quick reference, but I was kinda expecting to see an example, at least for each section. Or a different page with a few examples and maybe a simulator. Kinda to see the magic. But it's cool nevertheless.
