I have 2 bash scripts, scriptA and scriptB. From within scriptA, scriptB is called. Is there a way to get scriptA to exit before scriptB? Thank you.

* Partially worked. ScriptA now closes before ScriptB, but ScriptB doesn't close. ScriptB is as simple as echo a statement and exit. Any suggestions? – vincent Jul 26 '12 at 00:56

I would recommend making ScriptB a function that gets invoked from ScriptA. – pmohandas Jul 26 '12 at 02:39

That won't work for my needs. Here is the issue: I need scriptA to do something, then after scriptA finishes, scriptB needs to execute separately. Is there a better way to accomplish this? – vincent Jul 26 '12 at 17:09
