Hi,I am new to bash and am looking for some help. Specifically, I would like to ensure the user supplies two arguments to the shell script - month and year. How should I combine multiple expressions in an if statement?
So far I have the following script : month=$1 year=$2 if [ -z$month -o -z$year ]; then echo "Usage: $0 month year"; echo "example: date.sh 01 2005"; exit 1 fi In other words I want to say if A is true OR B is true then echo output. How would I do that? Any help is much appreciated. Jim
