Well, accidents happen.
I though I am out of the tentacles of writing ".bat" files.
But ... I have "inherited " a bash script and being "forced" to learn how to write and use bash. I am having tough time to write my questions in proper English, hence I am not welcomed in most of the "forums" I have tried.
Is there a specific forum on this site where I can freely ask about bash and actually learn it from discussions?

Try asking in the quick answers section.

Bash is easy if you have already used .bat files. The difficulty comes when someone uses fancy things like find, awk, grep etc. You could see if you can find a copy of the man pages in your own language.

So far my main problem has been "command substitution " and "redirection".
The other issue is that I see a bad trend ( to me ) - people just cannot reply to a request without giving me a sermon - "why are you doing that? "
And if I reply they will complain about my way of communicating and a simple request turns into lesson in English, or worse.

Both of these should be in the man pages. Alternatively there are many books available that give detailed explanations and examples.

But that is a valid question. You may be "doing that" for a good reason, but the question does not make it clear. Or you may be doing it because someone (who does not know) has given you a bad example. So just explain why, and why you need help. Complaining to people who are actually trying to help you makes them less likely to do so in future. So post a question with as much detail as possible and be prepared to enter into a friendly discussion with anyone who responds.

Hello, do you have any experience at computer vision or 3d cad systems.

No. Even if I had, my answer would be just "Yes".
So what is the purpose of your question? Do you want to start a survey?

Hey guys :) I never programmed before beside a bit of HTML and CSS, but recently I had an idea for an application and I don't know which language I need to learn in order to program it. I would be happy to hear your suggestions :) So basically at the beginning the costumer gives the app some data about his products, lets say price and stock, and then the app arranges some of the products in a different screen(costumer choose which products should be display on the second screen) , while the order of appearance is depending on one of the parameters(lets say stock). There's an important thing however, one of the parameters is gonna be time, which will change itself while the app is active, so it should also be very dynamic and be able to change momently. In addition it needs to run on a tablet. I hope u guys understood what I meant here, and I would really appreciate and be happy to hear your suggestions :) :) :) thanks

It depends whether this is a single user application on the tablet, or multi-user via a website. If the former then probably Java and Android Studio, or C# and Xamarin. If the latter then you will need C#, Javascript, HTML, CSS and most likely SQL.

Thanks  I suppose its a single user application, every costumer will have its own list of products and there shouldn't be any connection between two seperate tablets. That means its a single user application right ? Sorry for my disknowledge  thanksss

I am fairly new to coding..well completely new. I do have a basic understanding of VBA and am currently learning Python.
My goal is to write something that can access my company's website and automatically update an excel file we use for production purchase orders. Currently we need to go into each purchase order manually and update it which takes over an hour a day. There has to be a way to automate this process.
Is there a language I can learn that will be able to accomplish this for me?
|

Pretty much any language can accomplish this goal. The only real variation is going to be level of difficulty.
Though, I'd find an on-topic forum / Q&A and tag the message, if you want answers. It might go largely unnoticed here.
I'd start by better defining your requirements. Does the web site expose a web service? Or, will you need to scrape a web page for the data? Will you be updating an actual Excel file? Or, can you use something simpler like CSV?
If directly updating an Excel file, I'd probably gravitate towards C#.

Where to I ask a html coding question? Thanks.

You can ask at quick answers[^] or in the Web Development Discussion Board[^].
The first one is preferred for longer posts (especially with longer code snippets). The forums are mainly for discussions but can be also used to ask short questions.

Hello forum!
I have a device from a silicone developer and WIN10x64. With this device comes the driver with a good digital signature. But I need to rename the device name "silicone cp210x" to my name "Example" in the device's installation driver. I'm using a utility -CustomUSBDriverWizard.exe to create a renamed installation driver, but the installer is created without a digital signature ".cat" file. Is there a way to create my digital signature for Windows or to adapt the driver certificate for the name of the "silicone cp210x" for my name "Example"?
Disable digital signature verification or contact Microsoft for the digital signature of the driver with my name - these options do not need me. Perhaps there is a program for editing digital signatures of drivers or creating new digital signatures based on an inf. and sys. file?
