Rating: This book rocks. It has a deep coverage of the two tools in the title, but it is also a very valuable reference for regular expressions. I already knew and used both sed and awk before reading this book, but it pointed me out so many new solutions and ideas I couldn't imagine at all. The part I liked more was sed section. I always considered sed like a small yet handy tool, but after I have read sed & awk I was able to exploit all sed's power. I read this book almost one year ago, but I still use it, and everytime I open it, I learn something more. Great book.
