Can someone tell me how to determine how many parameters are passed to a script when the script is called? For example a simple script called trythis: #!/bin/bash Echo -e $0 And when you call the script: trythis 1 2 3 4 5 I get the output trythis What I want to see is that 5 parameters were passed to the script. Any suggestions?
