School ending Script

Hello beautiful people, I would like to kindly ask you to help me with my school leaving project. Unfortunatelly due to family problems I felt into trouble and I am on able to finish my project due to schedule.

I would like to ask you to review this script and give me any hints that you could. I am not usually asking others for help so I am really ashamed to do it right now, but I feel I don't have any more options.

Thank you for understanding.

Here is the script :

The script should offer a menu with the following options:

• To create a backup copy of a script file.
  [list]
• The name of the backup copy should have backup after the name of the script and be date stamped e.g. Ass3Script_backup_10_11_2015.
• It should be saved to your home directory using the Environment Variable for your home directory.
• The script should error check that the file exists and is a normal file. If this is not the case then the script should allow the user to re-enter the filename until a valid filename is entered
  [/list]
  

• To create a date stamped log file called e.g. log_file_10_11_2015 containing
  [list]
• A list of who is logged into the system,
• The disk usage and
• Your currently running processes.
• The file should be saved to an existing directory called log_dir which should be situated off your home directory
  [/list]
  

• To create a copy of a file.
  [list]
• The file should be in your current directory (the name of the file to be given by the user)
• The destination directory name to be given by the user.
• The script should error check that the file exists and is a normal file. If this is not the case then the script should allow the user to re-enter the filename until a valid filename is entered.
• The script should check that the destination directory exists. If this is not the case then the script should allow the user to re-enter the destination directory until a valid directory is entered.
  [/list]
  

• To move the location of a file in your current directory (the name and destination to be given by the user).
  [list]
• The script should error check that the file exists and is a normal file. If this is not the case then the script should allow the user to re-enter the filename until a valid filename is entered.
• The script should check that the destination directory exists. If this is not the case then the script should allow the user to re-enter the destination directory until a valid directory is entered.
  [/list]
  

This script should loop continuously until the user chooses to quit.

I would really appreciate any kind of help you could give me.

Thank you very much in advance.
