Lightbulb shell scripting...

Dear all,

Thanks so much for the feedback.
I have tried the following:

vi new

ls $HOME
ls ~
ls ~toto

they all respond accordingly

however:

user=toto
ls ~$user

it returns: can't ls to ~toto (???)


so the script can find ~sos10
and can view the variable user as a character variable
...
but cannot work with both...

I hear that this is not possible in bash...
and may be possible in csh, tcsh, or maybe sh

but I always thought that when you do sh script
it would run it in pure sh ...?


cheers again for any comments

N.B please try this exactly:
user=toto
echo~$user
