newbie very very simple script

[Murugs]

Hello All
My script contains something like this

............lines of code....
....
....cp /users/home/junk.txt /users/home/abc.txt
...line of code...

In the above script I need the user to input the path of the junk.txt file.

I modified the code to

............lines of code....
....
echo " Enter the path to junk.txt file"

Now how do I get the input from user and pass it to the cp command.

Regards
MP
