It's pretty simple, in bash at least:

$ export A=C B=d
$ if [[ $A < $B ]]; then echo $A is less than $B; fi
C is less than d

if you want to input them from the keyboard you can use 'read' and probably
a whole lot of other ways too :)

Hi, I'm trying to create a script that compare 2 or more characters, to
find
out the largest or the lowest one, for example, I enter each letter one by
one, like a, b, c, d, e, so the lowest one is a and the largest one is e.

How can I do that?

Thanks
^^
