This simple script is to help those using alot of .sh scripts.
It practically just convert it into commands for easy usage

Copy the script to /root

Then launch xterm and type the following codes
Code:

Any queries are welcomed
Thanks

Your script is:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
echo "Thanks for using this script. Copyright 2011 Pang Zi Yang"
echo "This script enables you to change .sh scripts into commands for easy usage"
find /home/user/MyDocs/ -name \*.sh
echo "Please enter name of the script you want to convert into command"
echo "Don't need to enter /home/user/MyDocs/"
read scriptlocation
echo "Please enter the name of the command"
read commandname
chmod a+x /home/user/MyDocs/$scriptlocation | echo "Please hold on"
cp /home/user/MyDocs/$scriptlocation /usr/bin/$commandname | echo "Done"
# cmdmaker.sh

Well, the Copyright note is funny. You are reserving your rights on copying a file from a directory to another and changing the permissions, aren't you?

...

So let me get this straight..

1). You're setting a mode within a vFAT partition before moving it to an ext3 node.
2). You're copying that entire script/binary into a size-constrained file system (rootfs) instead of one sitting in the optfs.
3). You felt the need to copyright a script that uses GNU userland tools.

Did I get it all?

Really funny thing that script (weird kind of humour you have)

Some ideas for improvement:
  • don't copy script file but create a symlink to it
  • create that link (or put the copy) in /home/user/bin, as /usr/bin is for system binaries and not for own created files. In FSH the correct place would be /usr/local/bin but that's not handled correctly by Nokia.
  • add /home/user/bin to $PATH (needs editing some login script)
  • test if command already exists and prompt user for confirmation if it does
  • do some error handling
Besides that, some nice idea.
