For Loops / IF Statements

[felix001]

i need to write a scipt which is based on a for loop. Within the for loop i require most of the script such as if statements and also a while loop.

The problem is when a if statement is reached i.e the RC is nto equal to 1 . I want the current loop to exit and then for it to start the next loop.

an example is

for i in `ls`
do
      mv -f $i /tmp
if [ $? ! 0 ] 
   then 
   exit 1
else 
   Echo $i moved to /tmp
   fi
done

Hi

Where in you code is the [tt]while[/tt] loop ?
Where in your code is the RC ?
Why not post syntactically correct code ?
