Script: phonedecode

Use and complete the template provided. The entire template must be completed. If you don't, your post may be deleted!

1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data:

script: phonedecode

This script should take a phone number from the command line and translate it into just numbers. For example, if it is invoked as phonedecode 1-800-eat-meat, it should print 1-800-328-6328. The translation shoult follow what is found on a touch-tone phone.


3. The attempts at a solution (include all code and scripts):

This takes a file as an argument: phonedecode testphonedecode.txt
(where testphonedecode.txt contains: 1-800-eat-meat) and phonedecode contains:

Code:
(sed 's/[a-c]/2/g' | sed 's/[d-f]/3/g' | sed 's/[g-i]/4/g' |
 sed 's/[j-l]/5/g' | sed 's/[m-o]/6/g' | sed 's/[p-s]/7/g' |
 sed 's/[t-v]/8/g' | sed 's/[w-z]/9/g') < $1

But I would like to be able to write: phonedecode 1-800-eat-meat
how can I go about passing the telephone number as the argument?


4. Complete Name of School (University), City (State), Country, Name of Professor, and Course Number (Link to Course):

Villanova, PA, Nadi, 8700, CSC 8700

Note: Without school/professor/course information, you will be banned if you post here! You must complete the entire template (not just parts of it).

NAME
ifcfg-wireless - wireless LAN network interface configuration SYNOPSIS
/etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-wlan-* /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-type-wlan GENERAL
Wireless networks need some additional configuration data compared to ethernet ones. Therefore additional variables for ifcfg files were introduced. All wireless LAN specific variables are described in the ifcfg template file /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg.template. It is pos- sible to configure more than one wireless network accepted for association. To achieve this add suffix _1 to all wireless variables for the second network, _2 for the this, and so on. Example: WIRELESS_ESSID_1="second_net" You can have up to ten wireless networks configured. Some wireless variables are not applicable to a single wireless network but are global to the interface. The description of the variable points this out. BUGS
