Hi @Suparno-Das,
Please press the “ESC” button and then :q.
You have to create a file called check_dir.sh under the given user’s home directory.

You need to create a file and not a directory.
Use command: vi . This will create the file and open an editor. Now press i and you should be able to write the script. In order to save & exit the file use :wq command.
