redirect stdout echo command in condition A run in condition B
hi,
I have some problems in my simple script about the redirect echo stdout command inside a condition. Why is the echo command inside the elif still execute in the else command
Here are my simple script
Quote:
#!/bin/bash
filename=`zenity --entry --text "Output Filename"`
location=`pwd`
pwd1="/mnt/Data/Ebooks-Video_Tutorials"
date=`date +%Y-%m-%d`
if [ -z $filename ];then
exit 1
elif [ -d $location -a -d $pwd1 ];then
echo "######### $location root directory ######### " > "$filename"\ Full\ Path-$date.txt
find "$location" -type f | sed 's/\/mnt\/Data\/Ebooks-Video_Tutorials\///g' | sort | grep -v "$filename" >> "$filename"\ Full\ Path-$date.txt
else
find "$location" | sort | grep -v "$filename" > "$filename"\ Full\ Path-$date.txt
fi
After check on the two diff output the echo stdout redirect is present in two diff outputs.
Thanks for any input..
