Question

I need to greet a user (using “Good morning”, “Good afternoon”, or “Good evening”) depending on the time of day.

I have already gained the users details ($userTitle $userName) however I am not sure how to greet someone differently depending on the time… any ideas?

Answer 1

h=`date +%H`

if [ $h -lt 12 ]; then
  echo Good morning
elif [ $h -lt 18 ]; then
  echo Good afternoon
else
  echo Good evening
fi
