Data shell script queries: $home; broadcast ping

Dear all,

This is the Bionic Fysh again. I have two quick questions:

1- when writing shell scripts, how does one allow the tilda ~ into the script ?
e.g
ls ~;
ls ~me;
user=you;
ls ~$user (N.B I think that for this one you need: ls `~$user`)

2- In FreeBSD 4.0, I would like for a normal (wheel) user to ping
by default, only the root can ping. And I would like to send a broadcast ping (like ping -b in linux) to a subnet.
e.g ping -b 192.168.1.0


Many thanks in advance,


Da Bionic 1
;-)

This cannot be used with -c 0 -s Specify the amount of bytes to send in each ping packet, up to ~1400 bytes. -c Number of packets to send before exiting.
