??? Let's take a peek at creating a shell script with Vim:

1. Open Vim with vim my_script.sh
2. Press i to enter insert mode.
3. Add your shell script content:

#!/bin/bash

# Step 1: Define variables
script_name="my_script.sh"
message="Hello, Shell Scripting World!"

# Step 2: Create the shell script using Vim
cat <<EOF > $script_name
#!/bin/bash
echo "$message"

# Adding a simple loop
for i in {1..5}; do
    echo "This is loop iteration \$i"
done
EOF

# Step 3: Make the script executable
chmod u+x $script_name

# Step 4: Run the script
./$script_name        

4. Press Esc to exit insert mode, and type :wq to save and exit Vim.

?? Now, let's explore file permissions—because mastering the basics is key! ??? Understanding how to set permissions using chmod, and comprehending the significance of read, write, and execute permissions is fundamental for anyone stepping into the world of shell scripting. ????

?? Quick tip: Use chmod u+x my_script.sh to grant execute permission to the owner of the file. And don't forget about the octal representation like chmod 755 my_script.sh!
