i don't want to sound a little wet behind the ears but there are certain things in linux I haven't got to yet.. and I don't know how to untar that script or download... or what I am supposed to do to make part of the system.. I know how to gunzip it but I am not sure of the rest..
also i tried
alias ls='ls -ali --color auto'
at the beginning of the script and no color.. in linux redhat 6.0 text mode i learned to implement
alias ls=`ls -ali --color' in the .bashrc file but this isn't working in the script...
here is the script;;;
# !/bin/sh
# .clear
alias ls='ls -ali --color=auto' /* new line */
function fun { clear; pwd; date; tty; }
TTY=`tty`
Dir=`dir`
echo "enter term:"
read term
if [ "$TTY" == "/dev/pts/$term" ]
then
fun
echo "Experimental Tterminal" > /dev/pts/$term
elif [ "$term" == "z" ]
then
fun
echo "Experimental Terminal"
ls -ali -R . | less > /dev/tty
elif [ "$term" == "usb" ]
then
fun
echo "//Usbterminal//" > /dev/tty
ls -ali
else
fun
case $term in
u|U) fun
echo "//usbterminal//" && egrep -nA5 '([a-z]|[0-9]\
' * | less && ls -ali -R | less > /dev/tty
