my code is :


#!/bin/bash

echo "enter the source path for file1 with file extension"
read source1

echo "enter file1 name with extension"
read file1


echo "enter the source path for file2 with file extension"
read source2

echo "enter file2 name with extension"
read file2

echo "Target location : "
read target

echo $file1 "started copying...."

cp $source1 $target

echo "$file1 is copied to target location successfully \n"

echo "$file2 started copying...."
cp $source2 $target

cd $target
echo "$file1 started uncompressing.."
gunzip $file1

echo "$file1 uncompressed successfully"

echo "$file2 started uncompressing.."
gunzip $file2

echo "Files unzipped"
