Show HN: Interactive exercises for GNU grep, sed and awk

4 pointsby asicspalmost 2 years ago
Hello!<p>For the past few months, I&#x27;ve been using a Python framework called Textual to create TUI apps for interactive exercises. Released the app for GNU awk earlier today, so thought I&#x27;d create a post here.<p>If you already know how to manage Python packages, you can use the following command to get all the three apps:<p><pre><code> pip install grepexercises sedexercises awkexercises </code></pre> `pipx` should also work, but I haven&#x27;t tested it. The GitHub repo has the source code as well as more detailed installation instructions.<p>You can use alternative CLI tools to solve these exercises as well. For example, Perl instead of GNU awk or ripgrep instead of GNU grep and so on.<p>Hope you find these TUI apps useful. I&#x27;d highly appreciate your feedback. Happy learning :)
