Re: Numbering!
korn shell is compatible across the unix families. make sure you run the "typeset" command in the korn shell by issuing "ksh" command at command prompt.
another option, you can put this line at the most top of the shell script:
#!/path/to/ksh
if you cannot find the man page from the unix machine then look for it from the internet. there are tens or more of man page on typeset available.

Would it be possible for a script to duplicate a file and incrementally number it?
File in: XXX_007_0580_xxxx_v0016.aep
File out: XXX_007_0580_xxxx_v0017.aep
If someone knows of a way I'd love to see it.
Thanks! (7 Replies)

times(1) User Commands times(1)
NAME
times - shell built-in function to report time usages of the current shell
SYNOPSIS
sh
times
ksh
times
DESCRIPTION
sh
Print the accumulated user and system times for processes run from the shell.
ksh
Print the accumulated user and system times for the shell and for processes run from the shell.
On this man page, ksh(1) commands that are preceded by one or two * (asterisks) are treated specially in the following ways:
1. Variable assignment lists preceding the command remain in effect when the command completes.
2. I/O redirections are processed after variable assignments.
3. Errors cause a script that contains them to abort.
4. Words, following a command preceded by ** that are in the format of a variable assignment, are expanded with the same rules as a vari-
able assignment. This means that tilde substitution is performed after the = sign and word splitting and file name generation are not
performed.
