Bash Script

[Inertia]

Hi,

I have no experience of bash scripting other than poking about in existing scripts.

I would like to make a bash script which runs a command pauses for 3 minutes then loops.

anyone care to lend a hand ?

Thanks

This should do it:

#!/bin/bash

while [ true ]; do
    echo "Insert your commands here"
    sleep 180s
done

Oh, and moved here. Please use the HOWTO section for writing completed HOWTOs and guides, not for asking questions.
