Step Three

Create a log file using "script $"$ at the command line where filename is the name of the script file you will create. Name your file as "lab$1\_$lastname.txt$".$ When you are done with your lab, you can type "exit" and the script logging will end. It would be helpful to open a second command window to use the man command.

Step Four:

$1-$ type the command whoami

$2-$ create a new directory named lab$1$

$3-$ change directories into lab$1$

$4-$ list all files, even hidden files $($the directory should be blank$)$

$5-$ create a new file that contains the calendar for this month

$6-$ list all files again, even hidden files $($there should be just one file$)$

$7-$ display the entire contents of that new file

$8-$ delete the file

$9-$ ask the system when is Easter in $2011$

$10-$ ask the system for today's date

End the log file.File Manipulation
