hmmm...

Thanks everyone for the replies. I think I should go with what Zaxxon told me earlier and as I had initially done it. I don't require functions because only single line of code, so that...

Hello,

I mean, I would just like to use them as a "notation" for variables that are available to every scope; outside any function.

I knew you would be replying, saw you online :)

Hello Experts,

I have written a UNIX shell which spans about 400 lines. I have tried to manage the flow as far as possible using functions. In the main shell flow, there are certain variables, not...

Hello Zaxxon,

newVal="007"

set -A arrVals `grep "${cid}" data.txt | awk '{print $1" "$2" "$3}'`
sed "s/${cid} .*/${arrVals[0]} ${arrVals[1]} ${newVal}/g"...

Hello Experts,

Eg: If we have two cases A and B and a default; if I do not break after A, it should execute all the statements of A as...

Thank you Franklin.

yes, you might have rwx permissions for all on YOUR file, where you have it.
But you need to have write permissions on the remote servers folder where you are trying to put this file AND you also...

Here I would say "good job Rakesh" as you captured the logic I stated earlier.

But I would have considered it better to give that step wise. Anyways, the job's done I guess.

Hello,

Here is a logic that you can use. Try to implement it and ask if you have problems constructing the statements.

1. List al the log filenames.
2. add the names to an array.

Also, for letting me know something more about "awk".

Any way to do it through sed, just for my information and...
