Pleaes read the
rules. Not only are you cross-posting across more than one forum, but you are also posting what appears to be homework.
From your other thread

would be grateful for some help on the following q.
"Write a script that takes two arguments. The first being a line of text, the second being your newly created file. The script should take the first argument and insert it into the very top ( the first line) of the file named in your second argument.
Note! The file must retain the original name
If this isn't homework, I don't know what is.
Thanks
