So... like this - printf "cp /path/to/app.app/folder/$x.plist" >> /var/mobile/z_folder/"$x".sh
or this - printf "cp /path/to/app.app/folder/"$x".plist" >> /var/mobile/z_folder/"$x".sh
or this?
printf "cp /path/to/app.app/folder/""$x"".plist" >> /var/mobile/z_folder/"$x".sh
??
I think the first two didn't work for me... do they for you ?
The first two ways don't work, because the first $x is expanded. The third also does not work, and is quite confusing. To make it clear and easy to understand, the two best ways to write this are:
Code:
printf 'cp /path/to/app.app/folder/$x.plist\n' >> "/var/mobile/z_folder/$x.sh"
echo   'cp /path/to/app.app/folder/$x.plist'   >> "/var/mobile/z_folder/$x.sh"
