Thread: Unix - Bash Shell Run a series of task upto a time

Hi,
This is my first post. I need to perform a series of task from a particular time to some other time. For eg, I want to start my task whenever i am running the script. And it should exit from script exactly at 9:59 AM. In between, i need to do some tasks. Can anyone help me?

hi,

Code:

until test "$(date +%F)" = "09:59:00"
do 
   : do repeat stuff until ... 9:59 !
done

/Closed. If you need further assistance on this topic, send me PM, and I will re-open it.

Shall we use this for Linux Bash scripts too?
