Re: bash syntax

[Charles Menzes <charles@lunarmedia.net>]

thanks for the suggestion, but still, no go:

Stella, at your service >pwd
/home/test

#!/bin/bash
USER=rufus
HOMEDIR=/home/test/$USER

        if [ -z $HOMEDIR ]; then
                mkdir -p $HOMEDIR
                chmod 755 $HOMEDIR
                chown $USER $HOMEDIR
        fi
	echo $HOMEDIR
#


when i run this script, all i get is the return of:

Stella, at your service >./check.sh 
/home/test/rufus
Stella, at your service >
Stella, at your service >ls /home/test
Stella, at your service >cd /home/test
Stella, at your service >pwd
/home/test
