I presume this will be on the Korn Shell. This is one of the best
books on learning the Korn Shell:

Kornshell Programming Tutorial by Barry Rosenberg
https://books.google.com/books/about/KornShell_Programming_Tutorial.html?id=yCgiAQAAIAAj

OpenBSD uses the pdksh which is mostly compatible withe he examples in
this book. "Kornshell Programming Tutorial" is written for AT&T Korn
Shell 88 but pdksh will run most of the examples with a few minor
tweaks. I highly recommend this book. It is very well written.
