help for function

Can anyone help me in shell script function with these four operation.

First removing the last line in the file and then removing the " from the file and followed by getting the file name and then getting the count of the line in the file
Also want to display file name and line count but this shell is giving me error
can anyone assist where it goes wrong


1)
sed -n '$!p' test>temp
mv temp $v_file

2)
sed 's/"//g' test.csv>temp
mv temp test.csv

3)ls -lrt *.CSV | awk '{print $9}'|grep -v "^d"

4)wc -l test.csv



Code:
getfilename()
{
cd $DATDIR
v_file=`ls -lrt *.CSV | awk '{print $9}'|grep -v "^d"`
echo $v_file
# remove last line
sed -n '$!p' $v_file>temp
mv temp $v_file
# remove " in the file
sed 's/"//g' $v_file>temp
mv temp $v_file
# word count
linecount=`wc -l '{$v_file}`
echo $linecount
}

thanks in advance

NAME
XmDeactivateProtocol -- A VendorShell function that deactivates a protocol without removing it SYNOPSIS
#include <Xm/Xm.h> #include <Xm/Protocols.h> void XmDeactivateProtocol( Widget shell, Atom property, Atom protocol); DESCRIPTION
XmDeactivateProtocol deactivates a protocol without removing it. It updates the handlers and the property if the shell is realized. It is sometimes useful to allow a protocol's state information (callback lists, and so on) to persist, even though the client may choose to tem- porarily resign from the interaction. The main use of this capability is to gray/ungray f.send_msg entries in the MWM system menu. To support this capability, protocol is allowed to be in one of two states: active or inactive. If protocol is active and shell is realized, property contains the protocol Atom. If protocol is inactive, Atom is not present in the property. XmDeactivateWMProtocol is a convenience interface. It calls XmDeactivateProtocol with the property value set to the atom returned by interning WM_PROTOCOLS. shell Specifies the widget with which the protocol property is associated property Specifies the protocol property protocol Specifies the protocol atom For a complete definition of VendorShell and its associated resources, see VendorShell(3).
