I got 1 upvote for anyone that can provide me a pdf of this thing.

git clone git://gitorious.org/the-cli-crash-course/the-cli-crash-course.git

Use dexy with a Tex install and it's a cinch. Only hiccup might be a few specialized Tex packages it complains about needing.


I was very psyched to see this, however, I am afraid to tell you that this is missing parts of the text. It is missing the 'Do This/Source Examples' - a vital part of the text for sure. Replace with fixed copy and report back! Thank you kind sir!


Updated to the latest version of dexy and all appears to be well. The link should now have a working copy.


Very good, thank you!


Hmmm. So it is. Not sure why just yet. I'll give it a shot debugging the Tex. Maybe something in my setup.


Feel free to read the PDF, and I'll be putting it up for free since it's a huge benefit to my students if they know the CLI.

But, PLEASE, do not pass the PDF around to newbies until I say it's ready. Having old versions with potential errors floating around or that are half-done is really bad for them.


Why on earth would you want a PDF?
