Write scripts to do three of the following tasks:
1. Loop through the files in your home directory, and for each readable file, ask whether the file should be printed,
mailed to you, or ignored (P/M/I) and then take the appropriate action.
2. Display the longest and shortest usernames on the system (usernames are in the first field in /etc/passwd).
3. Count the number of users with user IDs between 500 and 10000 on the system (user IDs are the third field in /etc/passwd).
4. Display the names of any filesystems which have less than 10% free space available (see the df command for this information).
5. Ask the user for an e-mail address, then send the output of the dmesg command to that address.
6. Count the number of files in the user's home directory which are not readable.
7. For each directory in the $PATH, display the number of executable files in that directory.
