This worked after moving the global definitions to the top of the file.
Thanx.

5. Give B.txt the same permissions as A.txt
I assume that there is some set of variables I can look at to find various
attributes of A.txt, so that $APerm = permissions(A.txt) or something, so
I can do chmod $APerm B.txt in step 5.

Greetings,
I have a shell script which duplicates a file and then renames the
duplicate file; the trick is that the duplicate file needs to have the
same permissions as the original file. For example:
1. Open file A.txt
2. Manipulate A.txt
3. Save A.txt as A.txt.tmp
4. Rename A.txt.tmp t

Yes, "source" is also present in bash:

I think it's designed to be read at login, but you could source it
like:
. .bash_profile
^-sin
After I change .bash_profile, how I can let it take effect?
is there some command for bash shell like source for csh?

Hello all,
I'm just wondering if any of you know of any "compilers" for shell
scripts.
I've been using Francisco Rosales' one (
http://www.datsi.fi.upm.es/~frosal/frosal.html ) for quite some time,
but it appears to have issues with Red Hat 8.0 so I'm looking for
alternatives.

It's telling you it can't tokenize the expressions, right? Spacing and

What is the script that gets for the bash shell on login for a user.
Not the default wide file, but the user specified one. Basically, I
want to set it up so that when 1 of my users logs on it automatically
runs the command 'startx' to load of KDE. I'm doing it this way becau
