#!/bin/bash
[[ $# -gt 1 ]] || { echo "Usage: $0 <arg1> <arg2> ... <argN>"; exit 255; }

echo 'Dont forget to surround the "$@" with the double-quotes '' so that it does not divide arguments that contain spaces.'
echo 'Samewise, you also need to surround the "$ARG_I" var'
for ARG_I in "$@"; do 
  echo '$@     = '"$@"
  echo '$ARG_I = '"$ARG_I" 
done



# paulo@lnxp:/tmp$ bash a.sh "Arg1" "I'm argument 2 with spaces" "And Im arg3"
# $@     = Arg1 I'm argument 2 with spaces And Im arg3
# $ARG_I = Arg1
# $@     = Arg1 I'm argument 2 with spaces And Im arg3
# $ARG_I = I'm argument 2 with spaces
# $@     = Arg1 I'm argument 2 with spaces And Im arg3
# $ARG_I = And Im arg3

# NOTE:
# Dont forget to surround the "$@" with the double-quotes  so that it does not divide arguments that contain spaces.
# Samewise, you also need to surround the "$ARG_I" var
