Hi All,
I need some help/ideas in coming up with a shell script.
Basically, the script should install 1 or 2 or 3 packages based on the
input arguments.
For example, if I type in pkgscript.sh a1 a2 a3, it should install all the
3 scripts and pkgscript.sh a1 should install only a1.

Keep going.
Some general observations:
1) Your shell scripting style is not typical. Learn from others and improve.
2) Even the file command is not always accurate.
3) Learn to look at ret
