Code:
function main()
{
guessnum=0
read -p "Please enter if its sinle player game or double player game 1 OR 2:" p3
if [ $p3=2 ]
then
read -p "Player1 please enter your name:" p1
read -p "$p1 please enter your secret word:" hiddword
read -p "$p1 please enter the number of tries you wish to allow:" lifeline
read -p "Player2 please enter your name:" p2
echo "Your word is $($hiddword | wc -c) characters long and you have $lifeline tries to guess it !"
cat $hiddword > hidd
hidden=$(sed -e s'/[A-Za-z]/-/g' hidd)
read -p "$p2: Please enter the guess letter:" guess
elif [ $p3=1 ]
then
read -p "Player1 please enter your name:" p1
read -p "$p1 please enter the number of tries you wish to have:" lifeline
$p2=$p1
hiddword=$(getword)
cat $hiddword > hidd
hidden=$(sed -e s'/[A-Za-z]/-/g' hidd)
else
echo Only two Players can play Please press 1 or 2
fi
check
}Please use code tags.
Double check line 15 and 24 'sed' syntax. It may be right, but I've never seen it used that way... I think that may be where your problem is.
