hi, this echo $SHELL will give the shell name.. how to get the other list of variables (besides SHELL) values?
and also, different shells have different variable names (example SHELL) (10 Replies)
cat .servers | while read LINE; do
ssh jason@$LINE $1
done
exit 1
./command.ksh "ls -l ~jason"
Why does this ONLY iterate on the first server in the list? It's not doing the command on all the servers in the list, what am I missing?
Thanks!

without using ls, just using echo so purely pattern matching
I can say echo */ <-- lists directories
but how would I match files? surely something like *!/ or * but neither work ?
it seems like there isn't much that I can put in but surely i should be able to put any ascii... (1 Reply)

Hi,
I am using korn shell.
until ]
do
echo "\$# = " $#
echo "$1"
shift

To the above script, I passed 2 parameters and the program control doesn't enter inside "until" loop. If I change it to until ] then it does work.

environ
ENVIRON(7) Miscellaneous Information Manual ENVIRON(7)NAME
environ - user environment
SYNOPSIS
extern char *const *environ;
DESCRIPTION
An array of strings called the `environment' is made available by execve(2) when a process begins. By convention these strings have the
form `name=value'. The following names are used by various commands:
PATH The sequence of directory prefixes that sh, time, nice(1), etc., apply in searching for a file known by an incomplete path name.
The prefixes are separated by `:'. Login shells set PATH=:/bin:/usr/bin. Note that the empty space between the `=' and the `:'
indicates the current directory. Security aware people move the extra `:' to the end of their path or omit it.
HOME A user's login directory, set by login(1) from the password file passwd(5).
TERM The kind of terminal for which output is to be prepared. This information is used by programs that wish to exploit special termi-
nal capabilities, a screen oriented text editor for instance. The terminal type is set by login(1) from the tty database
ttytab(5).
SHELL The file name of the users login shell, set by login(1) from the password file passwd(5).
TERMCAP The string describing the terminal in TERM, or the name of the termcap file, see termcap(5), termcap(3).
EXINIT A startup list of commands read by elvis(1).
USER The login name of the user, set by login(1) from the password file passwd(5).
LOGNAME Set to the same value as USER. BSD derived systems have USER, System V has LOGNAME, so modern systems have both to avoid problems.
Further names may be placed in the environment by the
export command and `name=value' arguments in sh(1). Arguments may also be placed in their environment by programs if they use
putenv(3). Or in the environment of another program by building a new environment for one of the exec functions that accepts an
environment list, like execle(2) or execve(2). It is unwise to conflict with certain sh(1) variables that are frequently set and/or
exported by `.profile' files: MAIL, PS1, PS2, IFS.
SEE ALSO elvis(1), login(1), sh(1), execl(2), execve(2), system(3), termcap(3), termcap(5), ttytab(5).
