| The new guide is part of the Bash Academy, an initiative I started a while back to make a central location for a much more guided / academic approach to learning bash. The guide is pure HTML which sets is free from a bunch of constraints imposed by the wiki. I'm also planning an interactive mode and a "bash game" to learn all the ways in which bash can go wrong in an interactive sandboxed session. You'll notice the approach/language of the new guide is also very different from that of the old - it wouldn't be possible to do that with the current guide without essentially rewriting it. I think if you give the new guide a read, it should become quickly obvious how it's different and that this is not something the current guide could simply have "evolved into". | The new guide is part of the Bash Academy, an initiative I started a while back to make a central location for a much more guided / academic approach to learning bash.

- Hey Todd, I've noticed your interest in improving the bash guide. Are you interested in going through the guide at <http://guide.bash.academy>? Lhunath
Just read this, so sorry if replay is late. If you don't mind me asking, why was a new guide started? — Todd Partridge.
