Hi,

I am trying to execute this small shell script in cshell, I am getting if: Empty if.
Error.

----------------------
#!/bin/csh

setenv COMP_FILES /NR/difference_files
#/usr/sbin/sendmail user1@abc.com < $COMP_FILES/taskcomp/diff_task_tue_wed.txt

setenv DAY `date | sed 's/ .*//'`

#Email of comparison files

if ($DAY == Mon)
then
/usr/sbin/sendmail user2@abc.com < $COMP_FILES/taskcomp/diff_task_fri_mon.txt ;

else if ($DAY == Tue)
then
/usr/sbin/sendmail user2@abc.com < $COMP_FILES/taskcomp/diff_task_mon_tue.txt;

else if ($DAY == Wed)
then
/usr/sbin/sendmail user2@abc.com < $COMP_FILES/taskcomp/diff_task_tue_wed.txt;

else if ($DAY == Thu)
then
/usr/sbin/sendmail user2@abc.com < $COMP_FILES/taskcomp/diff_task_wed_thu.txt;

else if ($DAY == Fri)
then
/usr/sbin/sendmail user2@abc.com < $COMP_FILES/taskcomp/diff_task_thu_fri.txt;

else
echo "try again"
endif
----------------------------

Hi All,

I got the solution, then has to be in same line and if ($DAY =~ Mon) needs to be there...
thnx

Thanks Chris

CSH ain't as bad as you always say.
