I am writing a script to process some files. Lets say the name of the script is myscript. I want to use it like 'myscript file1' sometimes and 'myscript *" other times, to process all the files in the directory with one command. So in myscript, I have this: ======================================= echo echo Argument 1 is $1. for eachFile in `ls $1` do ... done ======================================= The problem is that when I call myscript with 'myscript *", argument 1 ($1) is file1, not * as I expect it to be. Thus the script processes the first file and then stops. (file1 is the first file in the directory.) How do I get $1 to be * rather than just a specific file ?
