I'm having trouble with my bash script.

My script lists all files ending with .txt in the folder where my script is. Can I for example have

ls -l

as one argument and make

| grep .txt > files_in_folder

as a second argument and then string them together? If so, how?

I really can't figure this out myself and I am probably the biggest noob ever existed :D. It's part of an assignment my beginners course in IT-development.

#!/bin/bash

#This script echoes a text and creates a file

echo "welcome. Will create a file with content in this folder"

ls -l | grep .txt > files_in_folder

The selection should be based on submitting an argument when the script is executed.

#!/bin/bash

#This script echoes a text and creates a file

echo "welcome. Will create a file with content in this folder"

ls -l | grep .txt > files_in_folder
