making a 1 command line argument
I need to write a script that will take 1 command line argument. The argument will be a username. The script will determine if the user exists on the system and will print an error if it does not. If the user does exist it will determine if the user is currently logged in, if the user is not logged in it will determine the last time the user logged in and display the file in the users home directory that was most recently modified.
any thoughts?
