Hey Guys.
Here is another issue I'm struggling with: :wall:
I need wget to download only the files that has been changed. I use md5deep to generate the check sum files.
Here is a simple result; I'll call it $string for the example
0ce73169b069d11e38d6bd78796839c0 md5data
78cb11f2d943b48b8d5a00931cc454b1 md5rss
86ffb6728305730996451e43effa1738 myTextFile.txt
f385d56f26ca3859f48bd450c3e214bf rss.txt
if I set -- $string
, i can access each argument by using $# (where # is 1,2,3,etc..)
so:
echo $1 will print 0ce73169b069d11e38d6bd78796839c0
echo $2 will print md5data
however I'm not sure how to write $# in a for loop that will go through all of them.
So here is the logic of the loop I'm trying to create:
for I ; 1 to [number of arguments in the file] do; step 2
if $i != $string than download file $(i+1); end if
end for.
Any suggestions (or better ways to check md5 files and download only the files that are different?)
Thanks
