I've been working on some bash scripts and as these are my first, I thought I would share them and hopefully get some feedback from those more experienced... here is a list of what is here and what it does:

boot_sleep
 is a script i wrote for calling at boot up to sleep a specified amount of time


--- Quote ---Usage: boot_sleep [Option]

       where Option = any [Value] or Help

       Value = Any 1 or 2 digit number to delay in seconds

       -f Freq = Frequency of the parity check.  Possible values: Bi-Monthly,
            Monthly, Weekly, daily.
           
            If Bi-Monthly or Monthly is selected, the day of month, hour and
            minute argument are needed and if not specified will default to
            the value specified below.  The weekday argument is ignored if
            supplied.
           
            If Weekly is selected, the weekday, hour and minute arguments are
            needed and if not specified will default to the value specified
            below.  The month and day of month arguments are ignored.
           
            If Daily is selected, only the hour and minutes arguments are
            needed and if not specified will default to the value specified
            below.  All other are ignored.
