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.

I'm trying to write a bash script (in Ubuntu) that will backup a directory using tar.
How can I do a check in the script so that it can only be run as root (or with sudo)?
For instance, if a user runs the script, it should say that this script must be...

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

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. .

Is done with: find /Volumes/[AB] -name '*.bkf'
Sorting files by modification time is done with: ls -t
if load of files is not that much, you can simply use:

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.

The way you would normally include a script is with "source"
eg:
main.sh:
#!/bin/bash source incl.sh echo "The main script"
incl.sh:
echo "The included script"
The output of executing "./main.sh" is:
The included script The main script
... Now, if you...
