Hi.
I need to write a short script that's looking for a C files in a directory (based on whether it has a semicolon in it and a comment // or /*), check if the file ends with .c and rename it if it doesn't.
I'm pretty much new at this. i wrote this script but it doesn't seem to create the new file with the .c extension.
any input on why would be greatly apreciated.
#!/bin/bash
listOfFiles=`ls $1`
for file in $listOfFiles
do
semi=`grep ";" "$1/$file"`
slash=`grep "//" "$1/$file"`
if [ "$semi" != "" ]
then
if [ "$slash" != "" ]
then
extension=`echo $file | grep ".c$|.h$"`
if [ "extension" == "" ]
then
mv $1/$file $1/$file.c
fi
fi
fi
done
