Re: Shell confusion over positional arguments

[Brian Buhrow <buhrow%nfbcal.org@localhost>]

	Hello.  Okay.  I've figured out my confusion.  Thank you so much for the help!
here are the corrected scripts that work as expected.


#!/bin/sh
# Test retrieving command arguments by using numeric values.

arg1=$1
arg2=$2
arg3=$3
arg4=$4
arg5=$5
arg6=$6
arg6=$6
arg7=$7
arg8=$8
arg9=$9
arg10=${10}
arg10=${10}
arg11=${11}

# Now, print the arguments we  received.
echo "arg1 = $arg1"
echo "arg2 = $arg2"
echo "arg3 = $arg3"
echo "arg4 = $arg4"
echo "arg5 = $arg5"
echo "arg6 = $arg6"
echo "arg7 = $arg7"
echo "arg8 = $arg8"
echo "arg9 = $arg9"
echo "arg10 = $arg10"
echo "arg11 = $arg11"

exit 0

#!/bin/sh

./testarg -cmd1 -cmd2 cmd3 cmd4 cmd5 cmd6 cmd7 cmd8 cmd9 testarg10 testarg11
exit 0
