    *.css )
      $kommando "$gitdir/$linje" --type css >> "$gitdir/`basename \"$linje\" .css`."version".css" ;;

      $kommando "$gitdir/$linje" --type js  >> "$gitdir/`basename \"$linje\" .js`."version".js" ;;
    ?*)
  esac 
done < manifest.conf

when i run the script it gives me and error at line 36 (end) (when i serve the manifest to the while loop).

Answer 1

I see following errors in your code:

• you not enclose if statement by fi
• missed spaces in if header
• use $ when you wanted to get variable value

So, instead of

read yesno
if [yesno="ja"]
then
    echo "Hvad vil du kalde denne version:"
    read version 
else
    echo "ok - surethang !"

you should write

read yesno
if [ $yesno = "ja" ]
then
    echo "Hvad vil du kalde denne version:"
    read version 
else
    echo "ok - surethang !"
fi
