I have:
datafile contains 1234567890
>wc -c datafile | awk '{print $1}'
>11
The program
#!/bin/ksh
let n = (wc -c datafile | awk '{print $1}')
echo $n
I expect n to be 11 but it gives error message. What is wrong with this statement?
Thanks! (3 Replies)
Hello,
First of all, I am trying to duplicate the sum command using ksh/nawk
Lets assume the following algorithms work just fine and there is no calculation errors what so ever (which I doubt at this minute).
For now, I wanna make sure the script uses the BSD algorithim if -r is used... (0 Replies)
Ok, So up front I'm going to say that I'm a very elementary scripter, and I tend to use tools I don't fully understand, but I shotgun at something until I can get it to work...that said, I can't for the life of me understand why I can't get this to go down the way I want it to.
The goal:

I'm not confident at all on how arrays work.
I want to know how to set arrays in ksh and in nawk (is there a difference??)
if someone can show me some examples of both that will be great. Tried to look up on the net but was confusing me more.
Any help would be appreciated. (2 Replies)
Hello Everyone,
I don't know what is wrong with this:
Is it that nawk cannot run a ".sh" script or is it not treating "." as a literal. If so how to make "." be treated as a literal in "nawk" statemnts?
Thanks in Advance (2 Replies)

Hey all. I'm writing a script to automatically login to a router, change directories to where crashfiles are located, then listing all files in that directory. This is where I'm at so far and wish to have some user interaction to choose the files.

LEARN ABOUT SUNOS
ucblinks
ucblinks(1B) SunOS/BSD Compatibility Package Commands ucblinks(1B)NAME
ucblinks - adds /dev entries to give SunOS 4.x compatible names to SunOS 5.x devices
SYNOPSIS
/usr/ucb/ucblinks [-e rulebase] [-r rootdir]
DESCRIPTION
ucblinks creates symbolic links under the /dev directory for devices whose SunOS 5.x names differ from their SunOS 4.x names. Where possi-
ble, these symbolic links point to the device's SunOS 5.x name rather than to the actual /devices entry.
ucblinks does not remove unneeded compatibility links; these must be removed by hand.
ucblinks should be called each time the system is reconfiguration-booted, after any new SunOS 5.x links that are needed have been created,
since the reconfiguration may have resulted in more compatibility names being needed.
In releases prior to SunOS 5.4, ucblinks used a nawk rule-base to construct the SunOS 4.x compatible names. ucblinks no longer uses nawk
for the default operation, although nawk rule-bases can still be specifed with the -e option. The nawk rule-base equivalent to the SunOS
5.4 default operation can be found in /usr/ucblib/ucblinks.awk.
OPTIONS -e rulebase Specify rulebase as the file containing nawk(1) pattern-action statements.
-r rootdir Specify rootdir as the directory under which dev and devices will be found, rather than the standard root directory /.
