[TriLUG] "awk, bash date, sleep" sed od man; chown perl, grep cat, rm tail, finger toe, rm tar

[Peter Neilson]

I like all those arcane things. I like command line stuff, especially 
the Unix variety in preference to MS-DOS, which I always attack via 
cygwin. But I'm not in any situation where anyone pays me to do those 
things anymore. Do such jobs exist?

I mean, I'm the sort of person who prefers to use

   ls foo* > xfoomlist
   emacs xfoomlist

under cygwin rather than trying to mess with Winders software to 
accomplish anything similar. Indeed, I even tend to use emacs as my 
front end to an OS whenever possible.

The obvious position is Unix sys admin, but I already have a weekend 
job, and nearly every sys admin position requires weekends or even swing 
shifts. Also, I'm not really up for moving to far-away places.

My "usual" tech writing jobs are now unusually scarce, and are all so 
very micro-softened. Any crazy suggestions?
