I want to ftp all the sh files in the directory. Also if any of the file name
contains spaces in them, it should be converted to underscores before it is ftped. I wrote the following code below:
FILESSH=$(ls /mysh/*.sh)
--- FILESH being used here for some other task ---
echo "$FILESSH" | while read FILE
That will break your script if any filenames contain leading or trailing spaces. Use wildcards directly:
Or set IFS to a null string:
Quote:
do
echo "$FILE" | grep " " >/dev/null && {
There's no need for an external command:
Quote:
mv "$FILE" `echo "$FILE" | sed 's/ /_/g'`; echo "Name changed"; FILE=`echo "$FILE" | sed 's/ /_/g'`;
}
-- I will FTP the $FILE here ---
done
Can the line in red be avoided without using another variable in the code. I dont know why I am asking but just want to know if it can done.
I have a problem with the script below
#!/bin/sh
for vo in `find -maxdepth 1 -type f -regex "^\./*$"`
do
ls -l "$vo"
some other commands
done
It works fine until `find ...` returns files with spaces. I've tryed to change IFS but haven't succeed
Any solutions? (4 Replies)

Hi All,
I see similar problems in past threads but so far no answers have worked for me. I am trying to write a script which parses a txt file that contains one filename per line, then finds those files on the local disk and copies them to a specified directory.

I need to loop through the files in a directory and process the files. But some of the filenames contain spaces.
Here is a little test script I've been using to experiment. (I'm not really going to call 'echo', I'm doing some other processing.) Everything I try fails. How can I do this??... (7 Replies)

I'm trying to handle some files with spaces in their name using "" or \ . Like "file 1" or file\ 1.

APPLE_DUMP(1) Netatalk 2.2 APPLE_DUMP(1)NAME
apple_dump - Dump AppleSingle/AppleDouble format file
SYNOPSIS
apple_dump [-a] FILE | DIR
apple_dump -f FILE
apple_dump -d FILE
apple_dump -h | -help | --help
apple_dump -v | -version | --version
DESCRIPTION
apple_dump dump AppleSingle/AppleDouble format file.
OPTIONS -a FILE|DIR
This is default. Dump a AppleSingle/AppleDouble file for FILE or DIR automatically. Extrapolate FinderInfo type from absolute path. If
FILE is not AppleSingle/AppleDouble format, look for .AppleDouble/FILE and ._FILE. If DIR, look for DIR/.AppleDouble/.Parent and ._DIR.
-f FILE
Dump FILE. Assume FinderInfo to be FileInfo.
-d FILE
Dump FILE. Assume FinderInfo to be DirInfo.
-h, -help, --help
Display the help and exit
-v, -version, --version
Show version and exit
NOTE
There is no way to detect whether FinderInfo is FileInfo or DirInfo. By default, apple_dump examins whether file or directory, a parent
directory is .AppleDouble, filename is ._*, filename is .Parent, and so on.
If setting option -f or -d, assume FinderInfo and doesn't look for another file.
