2. Making Bash Shell Script
Then to Create a Bash Script on Home Directory with nano
First, Change to the User’s Home directory with:cd ~
Then to Make the Bash Script with nano play:
nano mybashscript.sh
Now to be Runnable directly as a Shell Script we append a Bash Shebang to the Top like:
#!/bin/bash
Then for our Testing pourpose we Append something like a classic Hello-Word greating:
echo 'Hello World!'
And the ‘echo‘ Bash Command simply Output a String on Terminal.
Finally, our simple Bash Script is containing just:#!/bin/bash date/necho 'Hello World!'/necho 'From the Bash Shell'
The Bash Commands must be in a Stack of sigle Commands like:
myBashCommand1 myBashCommand2 ...
Or otherwise in a Line of Commands Divided by a ‘;’ SemiColon as:
myBashCommand1 ; myBashCommand2 ...
Ctrl+Shift+v to Paste content into nano.
Use Ctrl+x to Save & Exit from nano Editor.
