Some scripts to make life easier

[zafari2001]

thanks a lot purehate!!!

How to run a bash script.

open kate or kwrite or whatever editor you fancy.

copy and paste the script into the editor.

save as......filename.sh

save to your root directory.

open a command shell and type chmod a+x filename.sh

you can also use chmod 755 filename.sh

they are the same command.

this makes the file excectable with all privliges. In linux all files have user,group,root,read,write and excecute priviliges

after that simply type

filename.sh at the prompt and voila.........

LOL, silly question for a junior member. Change your question before other members bash it :-).

But.... to answer your question, scripting in bt2 is just like any other linux scripting language. Just do a little search on google about "linux shell script tutorial". There are ton of tutorials out there. "Bash" is pretty easy to use.

I find nothing wrong with my answers since I find some users on here like to give negative comments. At least, I provided the guy with some guidance w/ his question.

As a senior member, shouldn't your answer be a little more productive and useful?

Cut it out now, that's an end to it.

Not one more word.
