I'm trying to set a variable to the output of a command.
This is what the comand output to the display looks like:
Code:
/>hciconndump -v TOsiu
Dump of connection(s): TOsiu
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Process: A60Tsiu Connection: TOsiu
EO Proc:
EO Config:
EO Msg:
Groups:
Data Type: frl Options: AUTO
RecoverDb: Yes Hold: No SendOnly: Yes
Disk msgs: No
Save Msgs: in: No Inbound File: TRsogaITS
out: Yes Outbound File: TOsiu
Comm Type: pdl-tcpip
Mode: Client Port: 18001 Host: 131.230.236.21
Reconnect: Yes Reopen: 5
PDL: mlp_tcp.pdl
----------------------------------------------------------------------
When I set my variable equal to the results of this command all the NL in the output are apparently lost. I want to preserve the output in my variable exactly as it is displayed on the screen so that I can ECHO it later and it looks correct.
Code:
/>myvar=`hciconndump -v TOsiu`
hsdvim1b@hci (/qdxtest/qdx5.4/integrator/msjsf2)
/>echo $myvar
Dump of connection(s): TOsiu ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Process: A60Tsiu Connection: TOsiu EO Proc: EO Config: EO Msg: Groups: Data Type: frl Options: AUTO RecoverDb: Yes Hold: No SendOnly: Yes Disk msgs: No Save Msgs: in: No Inbound File: TRsogaITS out: Yes Outbound File: TOsiu Comm Type: pdl-tcpip Mode: Client Port: 18001 Host: 131.230.236.21 Reconnect: Yes Reopen: 5 PDL: mlp_tcp.pdl ----------------------------------------------------------------------
Is there a way to tell Unix Ksh to preserve the NL when assigning command output to a variable?
I'm new to unix scripting. How would I go about pulling the first 3 characters from a variable in ksh and storing in another variable? Thanks. (9 Replies)
With C Shell you can get the root, head, tail and extension of a pathname by using pathname variable modifiers.
Example Script:
#! /bin/csh
set pathvar=/home/WSJ091305.txt
echo $pathvar:r
echo $pathvar:h
echo $pathvar:t
echo $pathvar:e
The result of executing this script is:

PAPS(1) General Commands Manual PAPS(1)NAME
paps - UTF-8 to PostScript converter using Pango
SYNOPSIS
paps [options] files...
DESCRIPTION
paps reads a UTF-8 encoded file and generates a PostScript language rendering of the file. The rendering is done by creating outline curves
through the pango ft2 backend.
OPTIONS
These programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-'). A summary of options is
included below.
--landscape
Landscape output. Default is portrait.
--columns=cl
Number of columns output. Default is 1.
--font=desc
Set the font description. Default is Monospace 12.
--rtl Do rtl layout.
--paper ps
Choose paper size. Known paper sizes are legal, letter, a4. Default is A4.
--bottom-margin=bm
Set bottom margin in postscript points (1/72 inch). Default is 36.
--top-margin=tm
Set top margin. Default is 36.
--left-margin=lm
Set left margin. Default is 36.
--right-margin=rm
Set right margin. Default is 36.
--help Show summary of options.
--header
Draw page header for each page.
--markup
Interpret the text as pango markup.
--encoding=ENCODING
Assume the documentation encoding is ENCODING.
--lpi Set the lines per inch. This determines the line spacing.
--cpi Set the characters per inch. This is an alternative method of specifying the font size.
--stretch-chars
Indicates that characters should be stretched in the y-direction to fill up their vertical space. This is similar to the texttops
behaviour.
