Hi. When i execute the script it keeps saying:

No such file or directory cd: /directory/path/where/you/want/to/start (i did replaced this with the full path of the directory i wanted it to start)

BTW, when i execute it just by typing
Code:
delete_frm_php.ksh

it says :
Code:
-bash Command not found: delete_frm_php.ksh: Command not found

when i execute it typing
Code:
bash delete_frm_php.ksh

it says:

Code:
: command not found line 2:
: No such file or directory cd: /directory/path/where/you/want/to/start
delete_frm_php.ksh: line 32: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `''
delete_frm_php.ksh: line 41: syntax error: unexpected end of file

I also a few tweaks in the path, no success

Any clues ? Thank you!

irsend [options] DIRECTIVE REMOTE CODE [CODE...] DESCRIPTION
Asks the lircd daemon to send one or more CIR (Consumer Infra-Red) commands. This is intended for remote control of electronic devices such as TV boxes, HiFi sets, etc. DIRECTIVE can be: SEND_ONCE - send CODE [CODE ...] once SEND_START - start repeating CODE SEND_STOP - stop repeating CODE LIST - list configured remote items SET_TRANSMITTERS - set transmitters NUM [NUM ...] SIMULATE - simulate IR event REMOTE is the name of a remote, as described in the lircd configuration file. CODE is the name of a remote control key of REMOTE, as it appears in the lircd configuration file. NUM is the transmitter number of the hardware device. For the LIST DIRECTIVE, REMOTE and/or CODE can be empty: LIST "" "" - list all configured remote names LIST REMOTE "" - list all codes of REMOTE LIST REMOTE CODE - list only CODE of REMOTE The SIMULATE command only works if it has been explicitly enabled in lircd. -h --help display usage summary -v --version display version -d --device use given lircd socket [/var/run/lirc/lircd] -a --address=host[:port] connect to lircd at this address -# --count=n send command n times EXAMPLES
