I am new to vi I found this script but can not get it to work. I created the directory under my id then created a file

#!/bin/sh
############################################################
PS=/bin/ps
CUT=/usr/bin/cut
SORT=/usr/bin/sort
HEAD=/usr/bin/head

if [ -x $PS -a -x $CUT -a -x $SORT -a -x $HEAD ]
then
echo
echo " %CPU PID TIME VSZ USER COMMAND"
echo
$PS -aef -o pcpu= -o pid= -o time= -o vsz= -o user= -o args= |
$CUT -c -130 | $SORT -r | $HEAD -10
else
exit 1
fi

$ stat
stat: =/bin/ps: not found
$ pwd
/home/frober01/test

$ ls -ltr

can anyone help
 
You will to make sure that you have the correct path for "ps". Do a "which ps" and that will confirm the path. Do the same for the other 3 commands. From their update the script and retry.
