Script syntax...does this work?
Hi all, I'm just a basic unix scripto...does the following lines work??
I saw this lines from a script I was about to modify, please take note that these are not the original directories and the sign ( " ) is in there.
"/destination/directory" "/origin/directory"
If I add a command line in the "destination/directory" will it work even if it has the double quotes sign?
"/destination/directory/`date +%m%d%y`" "/origin/directory"
Please take note that the "/destination/directory" is the current server I'm at, while the "/origin/directory" is a remote server from someplace else and we use FTP for transfer.
Thanks thanks.

install
install(1) General Commands Manual install(1) Name install - install binaries Syntax install [-c] [-m mode] [-o owner] [-g group] [-s] binary destination Description The binary is moved to destination. If destination already exists, it is removed before binary is moved. If the destination is a direc- tory then binary is moved into the destination directory with its original file-name. The command refuses to move a file onto itself. Options -c Copies binary to destination. -g group Specifies a different group from group staff for destination. The destination is changed to group system; the -g group option may be used to specify a different group. The user must belong to the specified group and be the owner of the file or the superuser. -m mode Specifies a different mode from the standard 755 for destination. -o owner Specifies a different owner from owner root for destination. The destination is changed to current owner. The -o owner option may be used to specify a different owner, but only the superuser can change the owner. -s Strips the binary after it is installed. See Also chgrp(1), chmod(1), cp(1), mv(1), strip(1), chown(8) install(1)
