Just use -ls with find .
You would need to add a header:
#!/usr/bin/env bash
And you xargs in this case.
Your command is already a bash script.

They should look like find / -perm -4000 -0 -perm -2000 > suid.old
the way you have it setup find thinks that ls is a path argument.
Remove the 'ls' from your find lines.

Essentially, I would like something that behaves similarly to:
cat file | grep -i keyword1 | grep -i keyword2 | grep -i keyword3
How can I do this with a bash script that takes a variable-length list of keyword arguments? The script should do a case-insensitive...

How can I do a check in the script so that it can only be run as root (or with sudo)?

To pull the effective uid use this command:
id -u
If the result is ‘0’ then the script is either.

The title is rather more simplified than the functionality I am trying to express in a script.
I have a one-level deep directory tree (much bigger than example) which contain various content, although only two particular files are of interest to me. A...

If it's one level deep, this should work:
for c in */current; do cat ${c} >> ${c%%current}revisions; done
for i in */current; do cat "${i}" >> "{i%/*}/revisions" done
Note that this will create revisions if it doesn't exist. .

Hello
I have just migrated to a UNIX workstation. My memory of Bash shell scripts has faded since school and I find the syntax to be highly confusing. I am wondering what other scripting languages are used to automate tasks. The two most popular ones ...

Just guessing though, dunno if anyone has done from scratch, it's probably best to (re-)learn bash.
That bash is most widely used, probably followed by perl.

You could write the metadata to stdout potentially.
If you in your bash script export some environment variables, than the script respond to a "kill" signal so as to extract it's runtime information using "trap".
