New to Unix, so please have patience. I understand that I should be able to type set food = pickle echo $food
But nothing echoes. It just leaves a blank line, then gives another command prompt. Am I doing anything wrong? "If" also doesn't work. This is what happens: $ if (5 > 0) > echo "Hello" > endif > > > And it merely continues that way until I exit the shell. Also a problem with "foreach." Output: $ foreach run (1 2 3) bash: syntax error near unexpected token `(' Typing "help set" and "help foreach" gives me: $ help foreach bash: help: no help topics match `foreach'. Try `help help' or `man -k foreach' or `info foreach'. Anything I can do to resolve this? I appreciate the help. Thanks. ____________________________________________________ Yahoo!
