dir_to_be_tarred= 
while [ ! -d "$dir_to_be_tarred" ]; do  
    echo -n "Enter path to directory to be archived: " # -n makes "echo" not output an ending NEWLINE 
    read dir_to_be_tarred 
    if [ ! -d "$dir_to_be_tarred" ]; then # make sure the directory exists 
     echo "Directory \"$dir_to_be_tarred\" does not exist"  # use quotes around the directory name in case user enter an empty line 
    fi 
done 

storage_dir= 
while [ ! -d "$storage_dir" ]; do 
    echo -n "Enter path to directory where to store the archive: " 
    read storage_dir 
    if [ ! -d "$storage_dir" ]; then 
     echo "Directory \"$storage_dir\" does not exist" 
    fi 
done 

tarfile="$storage_dir"/`date '+%Y%m%d_%H%M%S'`.tar.gz  # the tar archive is named "YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS.tar.gz" 
tar cfz "$tarfile" "$dir_to_be_tarred" 
echo 'Your archive is in:
