Hi All
Just started with shell scripts and am stumped by, what is to most of you no doubt, a simple issue.
All I'm trying to do is prompt a user for input and writing to a log file. If the user types the word 'stop', then the program should halt. If the word typed is 'clear', then the log file... (2 Replies)

Dear experts,
I am writing a bash script. At some point of the program I need to have 'for' loop. For simplicity I tried with some other simple code. The format of the loop is given below.
k=51
m=55
for j in {$k..$m};do

z=$(($j+9))
echo "$w, $z"
done

lchmod
LCHMOD(3) BSD Library Functions Manual LCHMOD(3)NAME
lchmod -- change mode of file
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <unistd.h>
int
lchmod(const char *path, mode_t flags);
DESCRIPTION
The function lchmod() sets the file permission bits of the file specified by the pathname path to mode. See chmod(2) for the values of the
flags.
The lchmod() call is like chmod() except when the named file is a symbolic link, in which case lchmod() will change the flags of the link
itself, rather than the file it points to.
NOTE
Instead of being a system call, lchmod() is emulated using setattrlist(2). Not all file systems support setattrlist(2).
RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, a value of 0 is returned. Otherwise, -1 is returned and the global variable errno is set to indicate the error.
ERRORS
The lchmod() call may return the same errors as chmod(2) and setattrlist(2).
