What OS are you on?
Did you look at what you created with mkdir? (use ls -l ...)
Isnt there something wrong?...
Since a script is a text file, yes you will have to use vi... but I am not sure about tables for you seem only to begin so what you call tables I understand as "files" now its up to you to say how the the fields are separated...
A script will not be executable just like that so look at chmod command, and the commands you put in a shell script are not vi internals but true unix commands so read again your notes so far on the commands you already know and submit to us a beginning of script so we can do our comments if you wish...

You will need variables to store what people have typed
(hint: you will need read command, so look what it does in a shellscript...)
You will have to display your screen, what command do you use for that?

Once someone entered values in your variables, you will want to write their content in a file...

NAME
script - make record of a terminal session SYNOPSIS
script [-a] [filename] DESCRIPTION
The script utility makes a record of everything printed on your screen. The record is written to filename. If no file name is given, the record is saved in the file typescript. See WARNINGS. The script command forks and creates a sub-shell, according to the value of $SHELL, and records the text from this session. The script ends when the forked shell exits or when Control-d is typed. OPTIONS
The following option is supported: -a Appends the session record to filename, rather than overwriting it. NOTES
script places everything that appears on the screen in filename, including prompts. ATTRIBUTES
See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes: +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ | ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |Availability |SUNWcsu | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |CSI |Enabled | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ SEE ALSO
attributes(5) WARNINGS
script can pose a security risk when used in directories that are writable by other users (for example, /tmp), especially when run by a privileged user, that is, root. Be sure that typescript is not a link before running script. SunOS 5.10 30 Jan 2004 script(1)
