I have to write a script in ksh which again should call another script. Say A.ksh is calling B.ksh. Now in B.ksh if the condition we are checking for is true then we have to go back to the main script A.ksh or if the condition in B.ksh is false then we have to totally come out of the scripts.
I have written a sample code and trying to achive the functionality mentioned above. In case of successs i was able to come back to the main script but even in case of failure it is coming back to main script A.ksh which is not wanted. Below are the sample scripts i am working on.

Hi,
I am trying to exit the script from a function.

alternatively, return will exit from that particular function.
but in my case, exit is exiting from the function and not the script.... (8 Replies)

This is what I've tried:
#!/bin/sh
send sh
send showifs
send exit
! killall minicom
My problem is that for some reason when I do this it doesn't give me the results of the prior commands sent like showifs
So I suspect my syntax is wrong. (1 Reply)

times(1) User Commands times(1)NAME
times - shell built-in function to report time usages of the current shell
SYNOPSIS
sh
times
ksh
times
DESCRIPTION
sh
Print the accumulated user and system times for processes run from the shell.
ksh
Print the accumulated user and system times for the shell and for processes run from the shell.
On this man page, ksh(1) commands that are preceded by one or two * (asterisks) are treated specially in the following ways:
1. Variable assignment lists preceding the command remain in effect when the command completes.
2. I/O redirections are processed after variable assignments.
3. Errors cause a script that contains them to abort.
4. Words, following a command preceded by ** that are in the format of a variable assignment, are expanded with the same rules as a vari-
able assignment. This means that tilde substitution is performed after the = sign and word splitting and file name generation are not
performed.
