Thanks pk!
That's the same thin Greg told me.
#!/bin/bash
if [! -e b.txt];
then
mv a.txt b.txt
exit
fi
#The previous commands checks to see if b.txt is NOT already there, if
NOT, it renames a.txt to b.txt
#If the script gets here, b.txt EXISTS..........
# does_exist is a recursive function....looking at b.txt(i) ......the
first b.txt(some number) it finds NOT existing...it creates....
set i = 1
does_exist[]
if [-e b.txt.$i];
{
then
i = i +1
does_exist
else
mv a.txt b.txt.$i
exit
fi
}
I'm close but getting an eror near the last line....not really sure
why....
./test: line 25: syntax error near unexpected token `fi'
./test: line 25: `fi'
