OK, second try at the question:
I'm using sh to impliment an IF statement. Can't get it to work.
Here's the code:
#!/bin/sh
if [$temp != ''] then
echo 'remote-caller' >> .people;
else
echo 'inside-caller' >> .people;
fi
I keep getting an ELSE UNEXPECTED.
So, I tried an ELIF, but no go.
Any answers?
(as you can see, I'm new to sh!)
thanx
