so you should always start with this?
Like saying to your N900, here comes a shell script
K thanks

I belibe so.
To start the script on Linux/N900 terminal:
After you make your script you will need to change the chmod

Type chmod 755 yourscriptname
Ch chmod +x scriptname

A simple script

#!/bin/sh
echo "hello. This is pretty cool"


That's it.

From your avatar, I cannot tell if you are trollin' or not...

The line essentially tells the computer which interpreter to run the script in.

In the above example you are telling the computer to use the interpreter which is called 'sh'. sh is the 'shell'.

you could say:

That would mean run this script IN bash. You could say:

That would mean run this script IN python.


Kingoddball:

My signature is a hilarious joke that apparently makes you a total bastard when you tell it.

My signature is a script that randomly chooses a number between 6 and 0, if you get a 0 it runs another script called a 'fork bomb' that crashes your computer. If you get between 1-6 it prints 'you live' and does nothing. It is computer russian roulette.

It used to delete everything on your computer if you got 0 but a bunch of people started crying about how mean that is so I changed it at Jedi's suggestion.


PS, dont run my signature

i can assure you that i'm not a troll, i just like the IE trollface
