I am looking for help to create a loop that will create the directory structure.

I need something like this :

Code:
If "DIR2" does not exist > Create 
IF "DIR2" exist already > check if onther "DIR" needs to be created
IF not > GO NEXT STEP of the script
otherwise
create "DIR3" and so on

Thanks for your help ....
You can use
Code:
mkdir -p DIR2/DIR3/DIR4/DIR5

.
or else you can loop around this command for all the input.

You dont need to check the directory and create the directory.
-p option create dir not exist else do nothing.
Then do your operations.
This is just a hint.

Cheers,
RangaSmilie

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
