Submitted-by: Luke Mewburn <s902113@minyos.xx.rmit.OZ.AU>
Posting-number: Volume 19, Issue 80
Archive-name: unsh/part01
I submit here a (modified) script which removes the chore of
using an editor to remove the stuff before each #!/bin/sh line, and
sh-ing the file. It works very well for multiple files (eg. zsh-01,
zsh-02, etc).
Note that to use with multiple files, you must supply the name-part
which is common to all the files (eg. using above example, 'zsh-0')
Finally, the file _MUST_ be in 'normal' sh format, so a
line with '#!/bin/sh' must exist...
Also, (unlike ush1.0), the name '#! /bin/sh' (with a space) is valid.
---------------
History:
1.1: (1-may-91)
o Fixed bug where a space between the '!' and the '/' would not work.
o Fixed bug where multiple occurances of '#!/bin/sh' would not work.
1.0: (27-april-91)
o First release (funny that!)
o Saw & modified idea by Chris Hillery.
