Write a shell script (/bin/sh) called 'fileline' which is passed two command line parameters. The first parameter is the name of a file and the second is a number 'n'. The script should write the contents of the nth line of the file to a new file called 'out'. If the input file does not exist or no such line exists in the file, the script should write an error message to the terminal.
