There are some similarities, but (b)ash scripting
is more structured and doesn't do DOS-type branching.
You will find a lot of example scripts in BasicLinux.
The most complex one is:  /usr/games/castle

------------------------------------------
if grep -q  /dev/fd0  /etc/mtab 
  then umount /dev/fd0
  else mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy
fi
