I am very new to Unix and FreeBSD so forgive me... I am trying to write an if statement in a shell script that executes a series of lines if *any* file exists in a specified directory. Ie: if [ file exists in send dir ] then do this and this etc fi Can someone tell me how to do this? Can someone also recommed a good book on shell programming. (Unix shell scripts for dummies?) Thanks, David Chamberlain Oregon International Airfreight davidc@oiapdx.yoshida.com
