[Tim Childers]

I ran the following command but not sure what output or result that I am suppost to get? What should I be looking for?

> bigfile; while du; do man quota >> bigfile; done

[patrick weaver]

That ">bigile" command is a shellcript. I copied it into a file underneath the first line "#!/bin/bash" as follows

#/bin/bash
> bigfile;
while du;
do man quota >> bigfile;
done
you have to give yourself permission to "x"ecute the file. Then when you run it (the good lord willing and the creek don't rise) it prints the man pages for quota to bigfile over and over until "du" (whatever that is)is no longer true; best -p
