This doesn't use shellforge at all. It write()'s the raw strings from argv to standard output. That's what had me so puzzled: There's some very important steps missing between this and even the nonfunctional example you posted.
sizeof() doesn't work on strings either since sizeof() is fixed at compile-time while strings can vary at runtime. It only gives you the size of the pointer pointing to the string. strlen() would be what you want.
I'm trying to pass a filename, or all the files in the current directory to the ls command with a script. Unsuccessful so far, here are a few of my attempts:
#!/bin/ksh
read fname
#if (( $# > 0 )); then
$fname | ls -l
#fi
this produces a long listing of all the files in my current... (4 Replies)
Is it possible to pass a string as an argument from the command line?
I know I can pass a word in but can I put a line of text in with spaces and fullstops or do I just put it in brackets or quotes so the compiler can differinate between the first argument and the second. (1 Reply)

tcl_concat
Tcl_Concat(3) Tcl Library Procedures Tcl_Concat(3)__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________NAME
Tcl_Concat - concatenate a collection of strings
SYNOPSIS
#include <tcl.h>
const char *
Tcl_Concat(argc, argv)
ARGUMENTS
int argc (in) Number of strings.
const char *const argv[] (in) Array of strings to concatenate. Must have argc entries.
_________________________________________________________________DESCRIPTION
Tcl_Concat is a utility procedure used by several of the Tcl commands. Given a collection of strings, it concatenates them together into a
single string, with the original strings separated by spaces. This procedure behaves differently than Tcl_Merge, in that the arguments are
simply concatenated: no effort is made to ensure proper list structure. However, in most common usage the arguments will all be proper
lists themselves; if this is true, then the result will also have proper list structure.
Tcl_Concat eliminates leading and trailing white space as it copies strings from argv to the result. If an element of argv consists of
nothing but white space, then that string is ignored entirely. This white-space removal was added to make the output of the concat command
cleaner-looking.
The result string is dynamically allocated using Tcl_Alloc; the caller must eventually release the space by calling Tcl_Free.
