How do I print the days until December 1 at startup?. I tried adding
this to my .bashrc file and it fails.
echo Today is `date`
todayis=`date +%j`
export todayis
bigeventdate=`date -d '1 Dec' +%j`
export bigeventdate
diffdate=$($(bigeventdate)-$(todayis))
echo You have $diffdate days until the big event
