Hello,
Running Mac OS X 10.6.8. I have this very simple script within a directory where I play (modify, compile, run) with some java code. When I'm finished I run this script to erase all the .java and .class files and copy clean versions from the subdirectory Backup. I can run this script by typing ./scriptName.sh and it works fine.
I would like to just have an icon in the same directory where I am playing so I don't have to go to terminal to run the script. (No need to use the echo statements.) I tried AppleScript and Automator, but not being experienced, well, I don't know what else to do. I tried stating the full path for the commands, but still no success. The .sh has the right chmod executable settings, etc.
I can do this easily in Windows with a batch file and just clicking it's icon. Any kind suggestions? Thank you.
#! /bin/bash
# Shell script to replace working files in this current directory
# with the old backed up files in the subdirectory Backup
echo "Removing *.java from this current directory."
rm *.java
echo "Removing *.class from this current directory."
rm *.class
echo "Copying backup files from Backup directory to this current directory."
cp Backup/*.* .
echo "Finished script."
