$# holds the number of command line arguments passed to a shell script.
Look at this script. Code:
[~/temp]$ cat shell.sh #! /bin/sh echo $# Code:
[~/temp]$ ./shell.sh 0 [~/temp]$ ./shell.sh arg1 1 [~/temp]$ ./shell.sh arg1 agr2 2 [~/temp]$ ./shell.sh arg1 agr2-arg3 2 See man test for more on test Code:
if test $# = 2 Code:
if [ $# = 2 ] vino Last edited by vino; 10-04-2005 at 03:49 AM.
