help with "if" statement for TIME
This should be incredibly simple, but can't get it to work.
All I want to do is pause a script between 11:00 am and noon. I receive the following error: time.sh[4]: 13:55:45: syntax error script: 1 while true 2 do 3 TIME=$(date '+%H:%M:%S') 4 if [ $TIME -ge 11:00:00 ] -a [ $TIME -le 12:00:00 ] 5 then 6 echo "time between 11:00 and noon" 7 echo sleep time $TIME 8 sleep 3 9 else 10 echo "time all others" 11 fi 12 done

Try removing the colons from your time variable and if statement:
Code:
TIME=$(date '+%H%M%S') if [ $TIME -ge 110000 ] -a [ $TIME -le 120000 ]
