In this tutorial, we will learn how to write basic shell scripts using Markdown. Shell scripting allows us to automate tasks and execute commands in a sequential manner. Markdown is a lightweight markup language that provides an easy way to write formatted documentation. ## Table of Contents - [Getting Started](#getting-started) - [Creating a Shell Script](#creating-a-shell-script) - [Running a Shell Script](#running-a-shell-script) - [Variables](#variables) - [User Input](#user-input) - [Conditional Statements](#conditional-statements) - [Loops](#loops) - [Functions](#functions) - [Conclusion](#conclusion) ## Getting Started Before we begin, make sure you have a shell environment available on your machine. Common shell environments include Bash, Zsh, and PowerShell. ## Creating a Shell Script 1. Open a text editor and create a new file. Give it a meaningful name, such as `myscript.sh`. 2. Add the following shebang at the top of the file to specify the shell to be used: ```bash #!/bin/bash ``` Make sure to replace `bash` with the appropriate shell if you're using a different one. 3. Now you can start writing your shell script using Markdown syntax. You can include headers, lists, code blocks, and other formatting elements as needed. 4. Save the file when you're done. Here's an example of a simple shell script written in Markdown: ```markdown # My First Shell Script This is my first shell script written in Markdown. ## Script ```bash #!/bin/bash echo "Hello, World!" ``` ``` ## Running a Shell Script To execute a shell script, you need to make it executable first. Open a terminal and navigate to the directory where your script is located. Then run the following command: ```bash chmod +x myscript.sh ``` Replace `myscript.sh` with the name of your script. To run the script, use the following command: ```bash ./myscript.sh ``` Replace `myscript.sh` with the name of your script. ## Variables Variables in shell scripts are used to store data and manipulate values. Here's an example of defining and using a variable in Markdown: ```markdown # Variables To define a variable, use the following syntax: ```bash variable_name=value ``` For example: ```bash name="John" ``` To use the variable, prefix it with a dollar sign ($): ```bash echo "Hello, $name!" ``` ``` ## User Input Shell scripts can interact with the user by reading input from the keyboard. Here's an example of reading user input and using it in a script: ```markdown # User Input To read user input, use the `read` command followed by the variable name: ```bash read -p "Enter your name: " name ``` The user's input will be stored in the `name` variable. You can then use it in your script: ```bash echo "Hello, $name!" ``` ``` ## Conditional Statements Conditional statements allow you to execute different code blocks based on certain conditions. Here's an example of an if statement in Markdown: ```markdown # Conditional Statements To use conditional statements, you can use the `if` statement followed by the condition and the code block: ```bash if [ condition ]; then # code to execute if the condition is true else # code to execute if the condition is false fi ``` For example: ```bash if [ $age -ge 18 ]; then echo "You are an adult." else echo "You are a minor." fi ``` ``` ## Loops Loops allow you to repeat a block of code multiple times. Here's an example of a for loop in Markdown: ```markdown # Loops To use loops, you can use the `for` loop followed by the variable, the list of values, and the code block: ```bash for variable in list; do # code to execute for each value done ``` For example: ```bash for fruit in apple banana cherry; do echo "I like $fruit" done ``` ``` ## Functions Functions allow you to define reusable blocks of code. Here's an example of defining and using a function in Markdown: ```markdown # Functions To define a function, use the following syntax: ```bash function_name() { # code to execute } ``` For example: ```bash greet() { echo "Hello, $1!" } ``` To call a function, use its name followed by any arguments: ```bash greet "John" ``` ``` ## Conclusion Congratulations!

*The Gujarat High Court ruling came with regard to the alleged fabrication of evidence and tutoring of witnesses in cases concerning the 2002 Gujarat riots.*  *Gujarat HC rejects 'activist' Teesta Setalvad's regular bail plea (Image" Scroll)* On Saturday, July 1, the Gujarat High Court [rejected](https://www.deshgujarat.com/2023/07/01/gujarat-hc-rejects-teesta-setalvads-bail-plea-orders-immediate-surrender/) the regular bail application of ‘activist’ Teesta Setalvad and ordered her to “surrender immediately.” The Gujarat High Court ruling came with regard to the alleged fabrication of evidence and tutoring of witnesses in cases concerning the 2002 Gujarat riots. >Breaking: Gujarat High Court rejects the regular bail application of Teesta Setalvad and ordered her to surrender immediately in connection with the alleged fabrication of evidence and tutoring of witnesses in cases related to the 2002 post-Godhra riots. pic.twitter.com/bXdIaFQkFW >**- Live Law (@LiveLawIndia) July 1, 2023** Setalvad has been shielded from arrest thus far by interim bail granted by the Supreme Court in September last year, after which she was released from judicial custody. Following this, she applied for regular bail at the Gujarat High Court, but the court denied the same. Senior Advocate Mihir Thakore appeared for Setalvad and requested the single bench of Justice Nirzar Desai to stay the verdict for 30 days. However, the court denied the request and ordered Setalvad to surrender before the police immediately. On June 21, Justice Desai concluded the hearing on her regular bail and reserved the order. During the hearing, the state government argued that Setalvad was a “tool of a politician” tasked with defaming and destabilising the then-state government led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The State’s prosecution, represented by Public Prosecutor Mitesh Amin, highlighted her potential to tamper with evidence in the case related to the 2002 riots, as he strongly opposed her bail plea Referring to the deceased Congress leader Ahmed Patel, Mitesh Amin, also submitted before the court of Justice Nirzar Desai that Teesta Setalvad was a “tool in the hands of certain politicians of certain political party.” Mitesh Amin has also asserted that Setalvad had used two police officers, namely retired DGP RB Sreekumar and her co-accused former IPS Sanjiv Bhatt, as “tools” in order to “see (to it) that the existing establishment (in 2002, when Gujarat CM was Narendra Modi) is unseated, faces problems, and their image in the society is tarnished.” ### The arrest of Teesta Setalvad in fabricated evidence case linked to Gujarat Riots 2002 Teesta Setalvad, the self-proclaimed ‘activist’ was arrested by the Gujarat ATS in June 2022 in a case of forgery, influencing witnesses, and the investigation of the Gujarat riots in 2002 that occurred in the aftermath of the Godhra Train burning incident, when 59 Hindus were burned to death after a Muslim mob set ablaze a Sabarmati Express bogey carrying passengers from Ayodhya. Teesta Setalvad is accused of coaching witnesses and making ridiculous accusations in several cases related to the Gujarat riots in 2002. The case against Setalvad was filed after the Supreme Court gave a clean chit to Prime Minister Modi in the 2002 Gujarat Riots case. Teesta was granted bail on September 2 by the Supreme Court.
