thanks to both of yall for the reply, but it didn't work. i copied/pasted
into a file, changed the EXCLUDE_LIST to something meaningful on my system,
but it doesn't work, it just prints out all the dirs in the dir that i'm in.
i got another bash question though. i wanna execute the following sequence of
commands (what is this called, so i can search for it on the internet?):
./configure --prefix=$1 && make && make install
but i want to exit if any of them fail. i figured the following would work
but it doesn't:
if [ ! ./configure --prefix=$1 && make && make install ] ; then
echo "an error occured"
exit #i don't know the command to exit a bash script
fi
thanks for the help again,
christopher
