[leglug-users] Some help... with bash scripting

[Maxim]

This is my first try at bash scripting. It seams to do its job, but I still
want to add some features to make it more usefull like checking the date
format as it should be DD-MM-YY and so on ..... any hints on how to do that

============
#!/bin/bash
# newspaper.sh v0.1
# newspaper downloader
if [ -z "$1" ]; then
     echo 'Insert date DD-MM-YY ex: 31-12-99'
     exit
fi
    D=$1
    mkdir $D;
    cd $D;
    A=1;
        while [ $A -lt 24 ];
        do
            wget http://www.almustaqbal.com/Issues/AsISPDF/$D/page$A.pdf;
            ((A+=1));
done
============
