Thanks Paul, Freddy, Chet.
Regarding printexitvalue, I use
trap '__exit_value_bashrc=$?; if [ $__exit_value_bashrc -ne 0 ]; then

Hi All,
I have been using tcsh for a long time and I plan to move to bash.
I am trying to replicate my config scripts and I have stumbled on the
following issues. My question is whether bash can do these tasks or
