 <h3>Your very first bashbot in a nutshell</h3>
 <p>To install and run bashbot you need access to a Linux/Unix command line with bash, a <a href="https://telegram.org">Telegram client</a> and a mobile phone <a href="https://telegramguide.com/create-a-telegram-account/">with a Telegram account</a>.</p>
@@ -340,7 +341,7 @@ <h2>Security Considerations</h2>
 <p>Running a Telegram Bot means it is connected to the public and you never know what's send to your Bot.</p>
 <p>Bash scripts in general are not designed to be bulletproof, so consider this Bot as a proof of concept. Bash programmers often struggle with 'quoting hell' and globbing, see <a href="https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/171346/security-implications-of-forgetting-to-quote-a-variable-in-bash-posix-shells">Implications of wrong quoting</a>.</p>
 <p>Whenever you are processing input from untrusted sources (messages, files, network) you must be as careful as possible (e.g. set IFS appropriately, disable globbing with <code>set -f</code> and quote everything). In addition remove unused scripts and examples from your Bot (e.g. everything in <code>example/</code>) and disable/remove all unused bot commands.</p>
-<p>It's important to escape or remove <code>$</code> in input from user, files or network (<em>as bashbot does</em>). One of the powerful features of Unix shells is variable and command substitution using <code>${}</code> and<code>$()</code> can lead to remote code execution (RCE) or remote information disclosure (RID) bugs if unescaped <code>$</code> is included in untrusted input (e.g. <code>$$</code> or <code>$(rm -rf /*)</code>).</p>

 <p>A powerful tool to improve your scripts is <code>shellcheck</code>. You can <a href="https://www.shellcheck.net/">use it online</a> or <a href="https://github.com/koalaman/shellcheck#installing">install shellcheck locally</a>. Shellcheck is used extensively in bashbot development to ensure a high code quality (e.g. it's not allowed to push changes without passing all shellcheck tests). In addition bashbot has a <a href="doc/7_develop.md">test suite</a> to check if important functionality is working as expected.</p>
 <h3>Use printf whenever possible</h3>
 <p>If you're writing a script that accepts external input (e.g. from the user as arguments or the file system), you shouldn't use echo to display it. <a href="https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/6581">Use printf whenever possible</a>.</p>
