Hi!

I'm quite new to ROOT so I've run into a problem with automating ROOT-runs. I run a couple of C-scripts in ROOT that calls for some ROOT-data files and creates new files (not .root). So, for one file I do this:

---

>> root

root [0] .x myCScript.C                (this C-script calls for

"rootFile_0.root" and creates a new file) root [1] .x mySecondCScript.C (this script calls for the output of the first C-script and creates a new file)
root [2] .q

---

I want to do this on a whole bunch of files (rootFile_0.root - rootFile_40.root) but this is really cumbersome to do manually. I want to create a bash-script to run from my Linux teminal that calls for ROOT and executes the C-scripts and so on... Any ideas how to get started with this would be greatly appreciated! Thanks,
