Hi,
Thanks for the reply. I do not want to print "Done".
I am running a job on a cluster. The output of which remains stored there until I say "getoutput" on my terminal which then brings the output on my hard disk. What I do is I first check the status of the job stored in a file "out" (in my case) and then if the job is done I say "getoutput".
I want to write a shell script which can execute a command "getoutput" (this is a command which is specific to a cluster I am working on) after checking if the job status is "Done".
I have written a line which is trying to do the same:
========================CODE====================
flag[1]=0
flag[2]=0
cat out | gawk 'BEGIN{i=1;}{if($2=="Done") { $flag[i]=1; i=i+1;}'
if($flag[1]==1 && $flag[2]==1); then
getoutput
fi
======================================================
But the problem here is that after the gawk is over, the values of flags are still 0 even if $2=="Done" i.e. gawk is not changing the value of flags globally (only locally) which should get changed if $2=="Done"
Thanks,

shell
shell(1F) FMLI Commands shell(1F)
NAME
shell - run a command using shell
SYNOPSIS
shell command [command] ...
DESCRIPTION
The shell function concatenate its arguments, separating each by a space, and passes this string to the shell ($SHELL if set, otherwise
/usr/bin/sh).
EXAMPLES
Example 1 A sample output of shell command.
Since the Form and Menu Language does not directly support background processing, the shell function can be used instead.
`shell "build prog > /dev/null &"`
If you want the user to continue to be able to interact with the application while the background job is running, the output of an exe-
cutable run by shell in the background must be redirected: to a file if you want to save the output, or to /dev/null if you don't want to
save it (or if there is no output), otherwise your application may appear to be hung until the background job finishes processing.
shell can also be used to execute a command that has the same name as an FMLI built-in function.
NOTES
The arguments to shell will be concatenate using spaces, which may or may not do what is expected. The variables set in local environments
will not be expanded by the shell because "local" means "local to the current process."
