I think the contention is that a *script* can tell, trivially, if a `.bbl` file is produced by BibTeX or biblatex. That will be dependent on the script and the...

I am trying to think of cases where something other than a name or a title would be at the head of a reference. Things that come to mind are...

I guess if `labelname` is a name list and `labeltitle` is a literal field, then the only likely datatype unrepresented is the literal list (`organization`, `publisher`), but it's usual to...

You are in good company asking about this. The [matter was raised](https://github.com/LibraryCarpentry/lc-shell/issues/63#issuecomment-500952337) in relation to a wider discussion about file permissions and use of cron, but you're right, I think...

It would be great if you could suggest ways of working these explanations into the lesson text. Here are the relevant parts for comparison: https://github.com/LibraryCarpentry/lc-shell/blob/0366d2d8b3dd965c6c55f397a77eb0b51a0c0c14/_episodes/02-navigating-the-filesystem.md#L59-L61 https://github.com/LibraryCarpentry/lc-shell/blob/0366d2d8b3dd965c6c55f397a77eb0b51a0c0c14/_episodes/02-navigating-the-filesystem.md#L81-L83 (The grammar in the...

Possibly the original concern was about cognitive load? Because the lesson says that `wc -l` counts the number of lines, and by default `ls` outputs as many items on a...

From what I can gather from looking at the commits from around 2020-01-06, the intended change is as follows. https://github.com/LibraryCarpentry/lc-shell/blob/a8f16aa84d6a51995cb9e7e2ede61e555465c38d/_episodes/04-loops.md#L47-L62 changed to ```markdown ~~~ $ for filename in *.doc >...
