Regarding trap command
 

I have written service start stop shell script and it is running fine but only problem is while running if I hit CTRL-C after it comes out and if I run again it will not go through as previous run had created a temp file and it did not get removed.

So I need to call a function below like this it seems but it is throwing me an error some ting is missing.

settrap() {

trap 'print \'You hit control-C!\'' INT
rm -rf /tmp/dummy.startup

}

start () {

settrap ()

...
...
...

}

Please anybody can let me know how to trap the ctrl-c and once that ctrl-c hit while I am running it shold directly remove /tmp/dummy.startup file.



Thanks!
