#Enter the following command: <span style="color:blue;font-weight:bold;font-family:courier;">bash /home/murray.saul/scripts/week7-check-1</span><br><br>If you encounter errors, make corrections and then re-run the checking script until you receive<br>a congratulations message, and proceed to the next step.<br><br>Although you will be learning to create and run Bash shell scripts (near the end of this course)<br>to '''automate''' tasks Matrix course , those scripts will only run in a '''command-line''' environment.<br><br>But since you are running the <u>graphical</u> '''Knoppix''' Linux distribution on your computer,<br>you can run scripts graphically (including the use of '''dialog boxes''' for ''input'', '''output''', etc.).<br><br>

# Issue the following command to download a shell script called '''week7-demo-1''' from the Internet:<br><span style="color:blue;font-weight:bold;font-family:courier;">wget <nowiki>https://matrix.senecacollege.ca/~murray.saul/week7-demo-1</nowiki></span><br><br>

# Issue the following to run this shell script:<br><span style="color:blue;font-weight:bold;font-family:courier;">bash week7-demo-1</span><br><br>What did you notice?<br><br>

# Issue the following Linux command:<span style="color:blue;font-weight:bold;font-family:courier;">ls -l week7-demo-1</span><br><br>Notice there are NO '''execute''' permissions. That is why we have to issue the bash command prior to the shell script name to force it to run in the bash shell. Let's '''<u>add</u> execute permissions''' so we can run this command by name (without using the '''bash''' command).<br><br>
