Interesting. May I offer a suggestion?

Turn most onliners into multiline shell scripts with documentation and store them in a GitHub repository. The concept of one-liner promises simplicity and transparency. But beyond a certain point a multiline code is a better solution.

Right now I see impressive but also scary looking long lines of code that are difficult (impossible?) to document.

They feel very black-boxy and with very little information on what is going on.

Yes, your tutorial is very informative, but Github's gist feature is made for exactly what Istvan is discussing.

Many thanks for your suggestions. Yeah, I intend to document everything in as much detail as possible, and hopefully in a few days, I'll have a much clearer explanation (I wrote all of these tutorials in a hurry). I also like the idea of putting everything on github. I'll explore that too :)

Please note that I have uploaded the following tutorial to give an introduction to Awk, BioAwk as well as how to generate statistics from metagenomics samples:
