Source shell script

Hi Experts,

1)Is it possible to get the flag status of one script to another.

Suppose.

1.sh

#!/bin/sh
source 2.sh
(If [Flag = True ] )&& (source 3.sh)

Open in new window

2.sh

#!/bin/sh
Some code here
Flag = True

Open in new window

2) Please share some knowledge on Global variables and set command.I was bit confused checking the tutorials .

Thanks

Depending on your window manager, you should be able to just start typing 'terminal' to bring up the appropriate icon to click on.
