Re: [luau] Shell Script Help

2002-07-14 Thread Miutaro 
Hello Mike,

I wrote a script on my Solaris 2.6 box at work that looks something like
this:

#!/usr/bin/sh

TODAY=`date +%y%m%d`
echo $TODAY
echo ---
YESTERDAY=`echo $TODAY | awk -F/ '{print 1 day ago  $1 / $2 / $3 -
1}'`
 echo $YESTERDAY
###END

You could always use the '--' operand to decrement vice $3 - 1

 To those that don't know me Aloha, to those that do how come nobody told
me
 about the new list :P

 The scipt below works fine a Linux box but I need it work on my Solairs
2.7
 box.  Basically I just need a scipt that writes yesterday's date in the
 format of yymmdd, thanks.

 #!/bin/sh
 # used to test date

 TODAY=`date +%y%m%d`
 echo $TODAY
 echo ---
 #Get day ago
 YESTERDAY=$(date --date 1 day ago +%y%m%d)
 echo $YESTERDAY

Could this script be a problem on the 1st of each month?
