[ILUG] Bash script - technical question

Hi David,

You'd probably be better off putting the functional parts of your bash
script inside a while loop.  Presumable you'd be looking for this to
run continually so an infinite loop would do.  Something like the
below perhaps?


while true; do

  <your code>

  sleep 10
done


Regards,

Killian
