using a file with a sequence to rename another one
Thank you this is helpful, but still not working this is what I got
the first part works the ftp I get the 04051000.DSB file,
now I want to rename that file with the result of
Code:
 
get $UpLoadFileName
cat -n inner
file_seq=$( < eftseq.dat)
echo $file_seq "file_seq"
file2=eft$(expr $file_seq + 1).dat
echo $file2 "file2"
file3=eftsql$(expr $file_seq + 1).dat
echo $file3 "file3"
quit
!EOF

Results

Code:
 
quote pass gvf1!3Mk
cd orgs
cd "Financial Aid"
cd MIIS
cd 0910
cd FTP
get 04051000.DSB
cat -n inner
file_seq=+ + No such file or directory
rzpeftf[143]: eftseq.dat: cannot open
rzpeftf[143]: eftseq.dat: cannot open
+ shl pain
rzpeftf[163]: shl: not found

when I ran these commands on the command line it works
Code:
 
file_seq=$( < eftseq.dat)
echo $file_seq "file_seq"
file2=eft$(expr $file_seq + 1).dat
echo $file2 "file2"
file3=eftsql$(expr $file_seq + 1).dat
echo $file3 "file3"

plotit

plotit(1)						      General Commands Manual							 plotit(1)

NAME

       plotit - experiment data visualization

SYNOPSIS

       plotit -w FILE
       plotit [-lp] -q FILE [FILE]...
       plotit [-lp] Y FILE [FILE...]
       plotit [-lp] X Y FILE [FILE...]

DESCRIPTION

       The  plotit program is a simple plotting program which can draw line plots and stripcharts using a command language similar to that of gnu-
       plot.  It can also make quick plots of multiple data files from the command-line.  Wildcards may be used in the file names.

       The program takes optional expressions which can be used to manipulate data columns before plotting.  Expressions may be as simple  as  the
       designation  of	a  column  to  be  plotted or may contain arithmetic expressions and functions.  In the latter case the espression must be
       enclosed in 'single' or "double" quotation marks. Column numbers are designated by the at-sign character (@).  A single expression is  used
       for the Y axis of the plot.

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
	      Print the usage and exit.

       --version
	      Print the version number and exit.

       -w     Watch  the input file for commands to stripchart, or wait to read all of stdin before plotting.  Only one file or - for stdin may be
	      specified with this option.  No other options may be used in conjuction with this option.

       -q     Plot the first and second columns of each file.

       -l     Plot with lines.

       -p     Plot with points.

EXAMPLES

       Plot the second column versus the first of all three files with lines only.

	      plotit -lq file1.dat file2.dat file3.dat

       Plot the quotient of the third column and the second column versus the first column of all files matching the pattern using points only.

	      plotit -p '@3/@2' file??.dat

       Plot the natural log of the second column divided by the third column versus the fourth column.	By default these  data	are  plotted  with
       both lines and points.

	      plotit @4 'log(@2/@3)' file.dat
