That's what cp(1) program is good for: cp this that "something else" /dir/to/
To do this you will need at least read permission; if you don't have that then you will not be able to execute the script at all. One way is to copy the script to your directory and add the execute permission. The second way is to call the correct shell interpreter program directly, as in: ksh /some/file/shell
A shell function will do nothing unless it is explicitly called by other code, typically in a shell script. A shell script is a runnable, executable process, which can call other shell scripts and/or functions. The question might be worded backwards - it is necessary to write shell functions for shell scripts when certain logical functionality is required to be performed multiple times. Consider a shell function equivalent to a program subroutine - they operate the same way.
#!/bin/sh mkdir homework lazyass for i in $(seq 5); do touch homework/file-$i; done mv homework/* lazyass
The shell interprets the script, while the C-compiler generates a binary executable.

why not use the cp command to copy multiple files, i.e. cp file1 file2 file3 dir Rick
You need to be more specific in your question - the use of 'convert' may mean different things. What is the net effect of what you are trying to do?

# shell script example if [ -f $1 ]; then echo $1 is a file elsif [ -d $1 ]; then echo $1 is a directory fi
There are several ways to verify a directory. You could use the following test in a shell script: if [ -d some-directory ]; then # directory exists else # directory does not exist fi of use commands such as 'ls 'to see if it exists.
To open a file simply use the command shell("directory")
If the shell script is readable and executable then to execute it just type the name of the shell script file. Otherwise, you can explicity call a shell interpreter to run the file as a shell script, i.e., ksh myfile
The following simple shell command lists the contents of a directory (verbose), and redirects the output to 'newfile.txt': ls -l > newfile.txt See related links.
It is possible to build a C compiler on top of a C compiler. From the directory, run the shell script.

Question is too vague; what do you mean by 'confirm the alphabet chosen'?
No, the shell needs both execute and read permissions to run the script.
