Well, it is a little bit more than .bat files ;-)
I am not very good at that myself. But I found a nice tutorial on the
linuxdoc.org site.
You just have to write commands in a file, with no particular
extension (sometimes .sh is choosen).
You could try an Hello world! program for a change...
Write that line,
#echo "Hello world!"
without the initial "#" into a text file, using vi or the mc editor,
or the command cat below. Then make it executable and run it.
The whole set of commands is
# cat "echo "Hello world!"" > test.sh
# chmod u+x test.sh
# ./test.sh
Now you can run test.sh every time you want. But you will want to
replace it with more useful scripts, so see
<http://www.linuxdoc.org/LDP/abs/html/>.
If you write some scripts that you want to use, copy them into /bin,
or another directory in your $PATH.
And bash is not the only shell, there are also csh, tcsh, ksh... but
I just know them by name till now...
